Hey there, readers! Tax season is upon us, and if you’ve been dabbling in the world of cryptocurrency, you know that navigating the tax implications can be a bit of a headache. But fear not! In this article, we’ll walk you through every step of the process on how to get your Crypto.com tax documents so that you can file your taxes with confidence.
Understanding Your Tax Documents
Before we dive into the nitty-gritty, let’s quickly go over the different types of tax documents you may need from Crypto.com:
1099-B: Proceeds from Broker and Barter Exchange Transactions
This document reports your total crypto proceeds from Crypto.com, including profits and losses. It’s essential for reporting capital gains and losses on your tax return.
1099-MISC: Miscellaneous Income
If you’ve earned any income from staking or rewards, you’ll receive a 1099-MISC. This income is reported as miscellaneous income on your tax return.
Transaction History Report
If you didn’t receive a 1099 form, you can download a transaction history report from your Crypto.com account. This report shows all of your crypto transactions for the year, which you can use to calculate your own capital gains and losses.
