Earned Income – All amounts received from providing a service, including wages, tips, bonuses and self-employment income in the form of money, services or property. Investment income, such as dividends and interest, is not counted as earned income. Unearned Income – Money received for the investment of money or other property, such as interest, dividends and royalties. It also includes pensions, alimony, unemployment compensation and other income that is not earned for services performed. Taxable Interest – Includes interest you receive from bank accounts, loans you make to others, and other sources. Tax-Exempt Interest - Interest income that is not subject to income tax. Tax-exempt interest income is earned from bonds issued by states, cities, or counties and the District of Columbia. Some definitions can be found in the back of volume 2.

Dividends – A stockholder’s share of the profit paid on an investment in a corporation reported on Form 1099-DIV. “Dividends” from a savings and loan association or from a credit union are actually reported as interest. Capital Gain Distribution – Shareholder’s portion of gain from the sale of capital assets, such as mutual funds and real estate investment trusts. Capital gain distributions are taxed in the year received and are always considered to be held long term. Unemployment Compensation – Includes benefits to unemployed individuals that a state or the District of Columbia paid from the Federal Unemployment Trust Fund.

Reporting Interest Income and Dividends
Interest income and dividends are common types of unearned income. They are considered unearned income because money, and not a person, is working to earn the income. Most types of interest and dividends are taxable. All interest and dividends must be reported on your tax return. Interest over $10 is usually reported to you on a Form 1099-INT. Dividends over $10 are reported to you on a Form 1099-DIV. Substitute Forms 1099-INT and 1099-DIV may also be used Interest and dividends over $1,500 must be reported on Schedule B of Form 1040. Taxable interest is reported on line 8a of Form 1040. Tax-exempt interest is reported on line 8b. Generally, any interest and dividend amounts over $10 are reported to you and to the IRS on Form 1099. However, all taxable interest and dividends must be reported on your tax return regardless of the amount or whether or not you receive a Form 1099.

Form 1099-INT Example of Form 1099-INT

Form 1099-DIV Example of Form 1099-DIV

Taxable Interest Most interest income is taxable. In general, any interest that you receive or that is credited to your account and can be withdrawn is taxable income. Sara earned $49 in interest on money in her bank savings account. She must report the $49 as interest income even though she did not withdraw it from the bank.

Taxable Interest Taxable interest income includes interest from:
bank accounts interest on loans you make to others interest from most other sources. Report the total taxable interest income on line 8a of Form 1040. If your total interest income is more than $1,500, Part I and III of Schedule B must be completed.

Taxable Interest Zachary received $1,500 in interest income from BBT Bank this year. He will report the $1,500 directly on line 8a of Form If his interest income from BBT Bank were $1,501, he would also need to report the $1,501 on Part I of Schedule B as in the second example below. Form 1040, Page 1

Taxable Interest Some of the other common sources of taxable interest come from interest on: Certificates of deposit (CDs) Deposits or share accounts from credit unions, mutual savings banks, cooperative banks, and federal and domestic savings and loan associations U.S. obligations such as U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds U.S. savings bonds Installment sale payments Life insurance proceeds remaining with the insurance company Tax refunds Gifts for opening accounts Credit Union: (Often termed “dividends,” they are actually interest.)

U.S. SAVINGS BONDS Interest on U.S. Savings Bonds is reported in box 3 of Form 1099-INT. If you use the cash method of accounting, as most individual taxpayers do, you generally report interest on U.S. savings bonds in the year that you receive it. There are three types of U.S. Savings Bonds: HH bonds EE bonds I bonds HH Bonds are purchased at face value. Interest is paid semiannually. You report the interest as income in the year it is received. EE Bonds are purchased at a discount and the interest on these bonds is taxed when the bond is redeemed. The taxable interest is the difference between the purchase amount and the redemption value. I Bonds are newer U.S. bonds. They are purchased at face value and interest is paid at maturity. You can report the interest on series EE, series E, and series I bonds in either of the following ways: Method 1. Report the interest at maturity of the bond or when you cash it. Method 2. Report the increase in redemption value as interest each year. Interest on U.S. Savings Bonds is reported in box 3 of Form 1099-INT. If you use the cash method of accounting, as most individual taxpayers do, you generally report interest on U.S. savings bonds in the year that you receive it. There are three types of U.S. Savings Bonds: HH bonds, EE bonds, I bonds

U.S. SAVINGS BONDS Sometimes U.S. Savings Bonds are owned by more than one person. Table 5-1 clarifies who pays tax on U.S. Savings Bond interest. Interest on U.S. savings bonds is exempt from state and local taxes Table 5-1. Who Pays the Tax on U.S. Savings Bond Interest There is an exception for higher education expenses incurred the same year the bonds are redeemed. All or part of the proceeds from qualified series EE bonds issued after 1989 and series I bonds may be redeemed tax free for qualified higher education expenses (tuition and fees). The bonds must be issued in either your name (sole owner) or in your or your spouse’s names (co-owners). You must be at least 24 years old before the bond’s issue date. If the proceeds are more than the education expenses, you can exclude only part of the interest from your tax return.

OTHER INTEREST CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT (CD) If you buy CDs with maturity of more than one year, include part of the interest as income each year. Early withdrawal penalty is reported in box 2 of Form 1099-INT and reported on line 30 of Form 1040. Early withdrawal penalty is for withdrawing money from CDs or other time-deposit savings accounts before the maturity date. It is a forfeit of some of the interest paid

OTHER INTEREST LIFE INSURANCE PROCEEDS
Life insurance proceeds paid to a beneficiary are not usually taxable unless the benefits received are more than the amount that would have been payable at time of insured person’s death. (Interest can accrue before distribution) LIFE INSURANCE PROCEEDS paid to you as a beneficiary of the insured person are not usually taxable unless the benefits are more than the amount payable to you at the time of the insured person’s death. The excess is included in gross income. If you receive the proceeds in installments, the part of each installment payment that represents the excess is reported as interest income.

OTHER INTEREST TAX REFUNDS
Interest received on tax refunds is taxable income. GIFT/OPENING AN ACCOUNT The fair market value of a gift or service you receive for opening an account in a savings institution must be reported as interest in the year you receive it.

OTHER INTEREST Tom has a CD that matures in January 2009 and paid $75 in interest in Does Tom include the $75 interest as income on his 2008 return? Yes or No?

OTHER INTEREST Tom has a CD that matures in January 2009 and paid $75 in interest in Does Tom include the $75 interest as income on his 2008 return? Yes

TAX-EXEMPT INTEREST Some types of interest are exempt from federal income tax. If you are required to file a return you must show any tax-exempt interest you receive for informational purposes only. Tax-exempt interest is reported on line 8b of Form 1040 and generally you will not receive a Form 1099-INT.

DIVIDENDS Distributions of money, stock, or other property paid to you by a corporation. Report dividends over $1,500 on Part II of Schedule B. Dividends may also come from a partnership, estate, trust, or an S corporation and be reported to you on a Form K1. Major types of dividends are: ordinary dividends, capital gain distributions, nondividend distributions, and other distributions. Dividends are distributions of money, stock, or other property paid to you by a corporation. Dividends may also be reported to you on a Form K-1 from a partnership, an estate, a trust, or an S-corporation. Some amounts you receive that are called dividends are actually interest income and are reported on Schedule B, Part I and/or line 8a. An example would be a “dividend” received from a credit union. The major types of dividends are: Ordinary dividends Capital gain distributions Nondividend distributions, and Other distributions received from a corporation or a mutual fund.

DIVIDENDS Ordinary dividends are taxable income and are paid out of the earnings and profits of a corporation. They are NOT capital gains. A “dividend” from a credit union is actually interest income.

DIVIDENDS Schedule B, Part II
If the total of all interest or total of all dividends is more than $1,500, ALL interest and ALL dividends received would be reported on Schedule B Part I for interest and Schedule B Part II for dividends and Part III would be completed

DIVIDENDS Pauline Adams received a Form 1099-DIV for $1,646 from NY Money Market Fund.

DIVIDENDS Qualified dividends are the ordinary dividends that are subject to the same 0% or 15% maximum tax rate that applies to net capital gain. Qualified dividends should be shown in box 1b of Form 1099-DIV. Capital gains will be covered in Chapter 11.

DIVIDENDS Capital Gain Distributions
Mutual funds pass capital gains to investors as capital gain distributions. Capital gain distributions are reported in box 2a of 1099-DIV and are reported directly on line 13 of Form 1040 if a Schedule D is not required. Mutual funds (regulated investment companies) and real estate investment trusts (REITs) pass capital gains to their investors in the form of capital gain distributions. Capital gain distributions occur when a mutual fund sells assets for more than their cost and the realized capital gain is then distributed to the fund’s shareholders. (Do not confuse this with capital gains that occur when the owner of a mutual fund or of a capital asset sells shares in the fund or the asset for more than the cost and realizes a capital gain.) Capital gain distributions are reported in box 2a of Form 1099-DIV. Capital gain distributions are reported directly on line 13 of Form 1040 IF a Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses, is not required. See Chapter 11 for information on Schedule D

DIVIDENDS Corey does not have to file a Schedule D. He received a capital gain distribution of $695 from JTH investments in 2008. Form 1040, Page 1

DIVIDENDS Nondividend distributions
A return of capital is reported to you on box 3 of Form 1099-DIV. Report the return of capital as a capital gain once your basis has been reduced to zero. A nondividend distribution is a distribution that is not paid out of the earning and profits of a corporation. A nondividend distribution reduces the basis of your stock and is not taxed until your basis in the stock is fully recovered. The nontaxable portion is also called a return of capital. A nontaxable return of capital is reported in box 3 of Form 1099-DIV or on a substitute Form 1099-DIV statement from the corporation. Once your basis has been reduced to zero, you report any additional return of capital as a capital gain.

DIVIDENDS Jesse purchased stock in 1996 for $4,000. He received a return of capital of $500 on the stock in Jesse reduced his basis in the stock to $3,500 ($4,000-$500). In 2008, he received a return of capital of $4,500. Since he only had a basis of $3,500, his basis was reduced to zero. What is the taxable amount for 2008? A. $4,500 B. $3,500 C. $1,000

DIVIDENDS Jesse purchased stock in 1996 for $4,000. He received a return of capital of $500 on the stock in Jesse reduced his basis in the stock to $3,500 ($4,000-$500). In 2008, he received a return of capital of $4,500. Since he only had a basis of $3,500, his basis was reduced to zero. What is the taxable amount for 2008? C. $1,000 Since he only had a basis of $3,500, his basis was reduced to zero. The remaining $1,000 return of capital is considered a long term capital gain and is taxable in 2008.

OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS Alaska Permanent Fund Dividends are not dividends. They are reported on line 21 of Form 1040 as other income.

BACKUP WITHHOLDING ON INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS
Interest and dividends are generally not subject to withholding. However, if you fail to give the payer your social security number or you give an incorrect number, the payments are subject to mandatory withholding (backup withholding). Backup withholding will be shown in box 4 of Form 1040-INT or Form 1040-DIV.

TAXABLE STATE AND LOCAL INCOME TAX REFUNDS
State or local income tax refunds, etc. Reported on Form 1099-G. If you itemized deductions and claimed state and local income taxes as an itemized deduction and receive a state or local refund, generally reported on line 10 of Form 1040. If you either took standard deduction or claimed state and local general sales taxes as a deduction then the state or local tax refund is not taxable. If you received a state or local income tax refund you may receive Form 1099-G, Certain Government Payments, from the payer. If you chose to apply part or all of the refund to your 2009 estimated state or local income tax, the amount applied is treated as received in 2008. If you either Claimed the standard deduction in the year for which you received the refund Elected to deduct state and local general sales taxes instead of state and local income taxes on schedule A (itemized deductions covered in chapter 6) Then, you do not have to include the refund as taxable income.

Do not include this amount on your state and local income tax return. If you are a U.S. citizen with interest or dividend income from sources outside the United States (foreign income), you must report that income on your tax return unless it is exempt from U.S. law.
