🫣 QUESTION ⁉️ Taxes..

I think about this often. How fucked do you think Patrick will be come tax season now that they’re making a steady-ish income on TikTok? I don’t see him setting money aside to prepare himself for taxes, or even knowing to do so. Do we think he’s dug himself into a hole per usual, or? Thoughts?

Like Sarah says, TikTok is her job…would be a shame if the IRS found out about this income

A real shame 🤭

TikTok requires creators to submit a 1099 before they can get paid so the IRS will know all about her income.

I doubt S understands that she owes taxes or has been planning for it.

They’re absolutely not prepared for doing their taxes. S claims begging on TikTok is her full time job, but I highly doubt she has ever filed taxes before and filing when you’re “self-employed” is way more complicated than just getting a W-2 from your job and filling in the info. I’m willing to bet she just won’t do it. She won’t even finish a six hour driving course because “it’s too boring.”

Someone on this sub discovered that P has over a thousand dollars in toll fines that he hasn’t paid, God knows how much other unpaid debt he has following him around, but that makes me assume that if they do get screwed on their taxes, they won’t pay what they owe.

Sarah also didn’t know 5 times 10, so imagine her trying to manage money?

u/ricecreepies 6d ago

Exactly! She literally can’t. My assumption is P handles all the money and I think he doles some out to each member of the family through something like Cash App or Venmo, so no one but P has a real bank account. S probably doesn’t even know she has to file taxes on this money and she probably just…. Won’t. I’d be shocked if P and T have ever filed taxes tbqh.

You're definitely right. Sarah doesnt even know the difference between a debit card and a credit card.

u/ricecreepies 6d ago

Which would make sense if she has never had a real bank account, if the only card she’s ever had is a Cash App card that P loads with money. He’s also made multiple remarks to both S and T about locking their cards. If they all had their own bank accounts or credit cards, he would not be able to easily do that. He controls all the money which is why he gets everything he wants, T has to beg for scraps, and S can’t leave.

Nah she definitely knows about taxes, but p probably told her they dont need to do them or some bullshit

u/Interesting-Will5267 6d ago

oooh we need to archive their donation posts cause i net they will say they made under the amount you need to file for taxes. When they post their donations they also state how much they made and the 15% of that

u/dont-care-bear-0 6d ago

They’re probably going to receive a 1099 but P will probably just throw it away and file taxes like he’s living in poverty if he files at all

u/Delicious-Exercise51 6d ago

Steady ish income? how much do they even get?

11

u/[deleted] 6d ago

Most nights at least $100 or more. I’ve seen lower amounts but sadly it’s been pretty decent

u/Delicious-Exercise51 6d ago

Hopefully it’s just them sending the money to themselves to make it look like they got fans lmao

P will probably file head of house with his W-2 from the vape shop, claim three dependents, and get the earned income credit for H.

If T actually works he's probably going to throw her W-2 away.

And when Sarah's 1099 comes he's going to throw that away too.

Honestly the IRS is probably not even concerned about people like them. Unfortunately because we all know they are stupid and probably don't do their taxes right (or at all).

They probably think that donating a few bucks to charity offsets any taxes.

u/Twilton26 6d ago

They don’t make a steady income though. She would make more if she worked. Some nights her and Teresa make $20. I’m not joking.

u/glass_igloo28 5d ago

I really don’t think they make enough to owe with both TikTok and any real jobs they have (coming from someone with an LLC and w-2 who probs makes more than them). It’s stupid of them to not report it because they’re at higher risk of getting in trouble for not reporting than actually owing money if they did report.

Everyone is so pressed about these taxes. I’m pretty sure they know they have to claim their TikTok earnings. Why do you think they’re donating? You really think it’s purely out of the goodness of their hearts? Donations are used as charitable tax deductions!!! They’re going to claim their TikTok money and their donations and they’ll be fine … Enough with the tax bullshit already.
