    "description": "State-by-state 1099-K reporting threshold dataset for tax year 2026, compiled against the restored federal floor of $20,000 (and more than 200 transactions). The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21, sec. 70432, signed July 4, 2025) repealed the IRS Notice 2024-85 phase-in and restored the $20,000 / 200-transaction federal threshold retroactive to 2022. Each row records the state's Form 1099-K filing threshold for third-party settlement organizations (TPSOs), the transaction-count minimum (where applicable), the gap versus the restored federal $20,000 threshold, and the verifying source URL. Twelve jurisdictions require a 1099-K far below the federal floor, gaps now as large as 200x (Rhode Island $100 vs $20,000).",

The operative 2026 federal threshold is $20,000 and more than 200 transactions: the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (sec. 9674) lowered the floor to $600, IRS Notice 2024-85 set a transition phase-in ($5,000 for 2024, $2,500 for 2025, $600 for 2026 and later), and then the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21, sec. 70432, signed July 4, 2025) repealed the phase-in and restored the $20,000 / 200-transaction threshold retroactive to 2022, as confirmed by IRS FAQs.
