Hello Roberto, If I have a cooking channel I do want to remodel my kitchen and buy new appliances, can I deduct 100% of these expenses when I file my taxes? Thank you!
Does one need a business license to to start up an online RUclips or affiliate marketing business or after you start making more than a $1,000?? I’m learning as much as I can to successfully start my own RUclips videos without any issues down the line.
Such great tips! You sounded like a CPA Roberto. For anyone overwhelmed by this, the important points are to keep all income and expenses related to RUclips in a separate bank account, using separate debit or credit cards dedicated to RUclips Expenses and keep all receipts. If you do that any book keeper will sort it out for you. Just hand over the monthly statements plus all receipts. Keep those receipts for a minimum of 3 years, sometimes longer!
Thank you! I am trying to get my channel going for a long time now but I only have 70 subscribers after like 4 years and I'm about to just give up on it. As small a gesture this was it helps me. I'm sorry if this is hard to read I have traumatic brain injuries and can't think straight to type it right. Thank you again!
Thank you!! I had no idea about SEP IRA. I’d wondered what else to do for something like that. Just shows you don’t know what you don’t know. Great advice on all the others stuff, too. I do that already but I’m gonna go check out the SEP IRA! Thanks, Roberto
All good to know! In at least the US, if you set up your account on AdSense as a business, you have to have a business bank account and an EIN to get paid anything anyway, so be sure to set that up!
Thank you Roberto! I didn't even think about taxes. I'm not there yet. But, God willing I will get there. These tips will help me to stay organized and to keep taking RUclips seriously. I've always used Turbo Tax. They have not failed me yet.
You can be an LLC and register as an S-Corp with the IRS. You can also pay in to the IRS as you earn. There is an IRS app so that you can pop into the app on the day you get your RUclips "check" to make a payment. For some people, this is a great tool. Get it paid right away to avoid mishaps. :)
I was scared to even imagine monetizing my channel, but if YT sends me a 1099 form and all I really have to do is give that to my tax representative then that's such a relief (of course id take the convert to business advice if I ever get that far 😅)
This is huge! Not a lot of people really talk about the other end of YT income. Appreciate the content and definitely holding on to this vid when Desi Dad Reviews has a strong enough fan following to be monetized!
i think you're supposed to enter your parents tax information but you loose so much money through that because yt thinks you have another job even tho it's your parents job if yk what i mean?
wow such fun in Canada it’s a extra 15% and in USA it’s 24% and it adds on ur parents my dad owns a store so it adds up to 30% of his money Taken away if I wanted to do this
Such valuable tips, thanks Roberto! My plan is to formulate a strategy and expand my knowledge on this and other business topics regarding my channel so I can hopefully turn it into something profitable by the end of the year :) more videos like this are very welcome!
Notif gang! This is an important topic that I haven’t really considered much of lately, thanks for the awesomely helpful insight yet again roberto😁🙏🏻 keep it up
Roberto Blake How do you manage to socialise with your Goliath sized audience Roberto? As an introvert it must take extra effort on your part. What pushes you to do it ?
Separate bank accounts at the very least. That is SO important and simple and I am blown away how many people don't even get that one done. PLEASE PLEASE at least do that.
This is a video you need to watch all the way through. Each tip is vital to keeping your taxes in order for your RUclips business. I'm 100% with keeping separate accounts for taxes and expenses.
1:29 Can You Deduct Purchase for RUclips From Your Taxes? note: To be deductible, a business expense must be both ordinary and necessary. Roborto did a great job explaining this. An ordinary expense is one that is common and accepted in your trade or business. A necessary expense is one that is helpful and appropriate for your trade or business. Mr Beast is writing off CRAZY things because that is ordinary for him. it will depend person to person and business to business. Gaming channels can deduct purchases of video games while other types of youtubers might not be able to.
Question #11 - Should I be using a monthly Profit & Loss Statement for my YT business? YES!!! Solid video man - very well done. Why in the world would anyone give this content a “👎”?...I saw four. Sheesh 🙄
Hi from England, to Roberto and everyone else. Love this channel. Roberto is awesome. I was so exhausted the other day. I just couldn't stay up for the live. Hope to make the next one Roberto.
One interesting thing I recently discovered: if you're trying to find out your total income for the year(like maybe you haven't been saving and realized that you need to catch up), you should actually look up from December 1 of the previous year up through November 30 of the current year. This is because you receive December's earnings in January so it's counted as income earned in January, so you would owe December's taxes in the following tax year
Thank you sir you really helped me at this time I’m on ssdi but I’m considering making content in the future and you never know if I could be a success so this made me feel a lot more comfortable.
Your explanation was very clear. Roberto, when you grew financially so that you were then an EIN, did you cancel your personal Google adsense and create a business Google adsense acct? Thank you for your time!!
I searched the whole month to get that informatin everywere i just get it here.Thank you so much for doing that video and your helpfull explanation.From France.
We could all have wireless repeaters with a built-in hard drive. Like this, we would all have free internet and be able to share anything we want (up to the local law) Also, don't forget we can use the electric cable as transmission since the invention of the telegraph
This was a very great and informative video! I just started out with my channel and it's not monetized yet therefore I have not incorporated a business yet. I guess I have two questions here: Should I consider incorporating a business before making any money off of my channel? And is all the equipment I have bought so far tax-deductible when my filing status is "married filing jointly" without incorporating a business?
We actually want to know the process on how you can pay your taxes on RUclips or it’s automatically took the payment on the amount of cash you made per month
Do you have to fill the tax info if you are not getting paid? Like ... if you have monetized your channel, but you haven’t filled out any account info for them to send you the money to.
Well I'm young but I've always done RUclips for fun, I hope one day I'll be able to earn money but I don't meet the requirements! I'm gonna have to talk to my parents about taxes... Yeahhhh! But thank you for the help!

Has someone who has filed RUclips taxes for over 5 years I can attest all these tips are legit.
Thank you!
did you incorporate?
I need help bro
I'm gonna watch this a couple times.. I need to absorb all this info. Thanx.
honestly same
I saved it to my watch later Playlist when it applies to us more we can go back to it 😊

Loving the Dave Ramsey Total Money Makeover book on your desk!

Whoever is reading this comment right now. I want you to believe in yourself, you can and will do anything you set your mind to!!
Thanks 😊

@@JFreese thank you God bless you
Great video! My taxes are a mess and my CPA hates me lol!
If you're paying that bill I'm sure they are okay lol
As a CPA, I think you are giving sound advice. All monetized creators should certainly consult with a CPA/tax accountant.
Thank you!! I had no idea about SEP IRA. I’d wondered what else to do for something like that. Just shows you don’t know what you don’t know.
Great advice on all the others stuff, too. I do that already but I’m gonna go check out the SEP IRA! Thanks, Roberto
All good to know!
In at least the US, if you set up your account on AdSense as a business, you have to have a business bank account and an EIN to get paid anything anyway, so be sure to set that up!
That’s a good point
Hi there, May I ask a question that if I‘m just a person of Adsense account, is there any difference with business one?
Strange.... I didn't hook up a business account. It never asked me for that, & I still get paid, with a personal normal bank account
@@HiChinachannel I'm wondering too
Thank you Roberto! I didn't even think about taxes. I'm not there yet. But, God willing I will get there. These tips will help me to stay organized and to keep taking RUclips seriously. I've always used Turbo Tax. They have not failed me yet.
Better to treat it as a business instead of a hobby. In the US a hobby doesn't allow you to claim expenses.
At this point if you have a RUclips channel and you're *not* subscribed to Roberto? You're doing yourself an injustice. Sub to this cat right meow.
I hit 20k on my main account all from the advice of this man. Don't know how he hasn't hit 1 mil yet with all the upcoming youtubers.

Facts!
I agree

As a 17-year-old who's never had a job and never paid taxes..... I'm so confused
i think you're supposed to enter your parents tax information but you loose so much money through that because yt thinks you have another job even tho it's your parents job if yk what i mean?
Ivona Marina about how much do u lose
Ivona Marina about how much money would you say?
Ivona Marina omg I’m going to get monitezed but I’ve never done taxes I will have to put my parents
wow such fun in Canada it’s a extra 15% and in USA it’s 24% and it adds on ur parents my dad owns a store so it adds up to 30% of his money Taken away if I wanted to do this

I loved this as a person working towards making a living off youtube! This was extremely helpful thank you!
Happy to have found this channel. Spent 70k out of my own money for RUclips and wish I knew I could have written it off. 🤦🏻♂️
Talk to your accountant and if you're doing your taxes yourself now is the time to stop...
He’s kind of contents. The world truly needs.
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Notif gang! This is an important topic that I haven’t really considered much of lately, thanks for the awesomely helpful insight yet again roberto😁🙏🏻 keep it up
Roberto Blake never disappoints! Easily one of the highest quality channels on RUclips😊
*GREAT CONTENT*
Segregation of the different accounts is such a clean and clear strategy 👍🏼
It’s been invaluable to me and kept me sane

This is gold! Thank you so much! This year is the year I make enough to worry about taxes from freelance / RUclips! Cheers 🥂
This is what I will need once I start getting paid from RUclips. Another helpful and informative video. Keep it up!

Your B-roll of a drawer full of Washingtons. Solid.
I just found your account and want to thank you so much for this video! This helped me so much!
Not monetized yet but definitely good to know information ahead of time..THANKS
Can you deduct say laptop purchase for making youtube videos if you are not monetizing yet? Thanks.
Hi from England, to Roberto and everyone else. Love this channel. Roberto is awesome. I was so exhausted the other day. I just couldn't stay up for the live. Hope to make the next one Roberto.
Going to try to do them earlier

Love your channel. Just getting started with RUclips. Monetized one channel, working on this one...your videos have been a nice guide.
Thank you for always being so helpful Roberto! I needed this 😩🙌🏾
Thank you for this straight forward video sir.
You’re welcome ☺️
WOw superb and interesting content Thanks for sharing buddy
Thank you sir you really helped me at this time I’m on ssdi but I’m considering making content in the future and you never know if I could be a success so this made me feel a lot more comfortable.
THANK YOU for some seriously helpful videos, as usual
Your explanation was very clear. Roberto, when you grew financially so that you were then an EIN, did you cancel your personal Google adsense and create a business Google adsense acct? Thank you for your time!!
No, since it wasn’t necessary I just linked it to the business bank account to avoid missing payments
Good advice! I have been doing things almost exactly how you stated! Nice video!
Really Needed this video! Thanks Roberto!
I searched the whole month to get that informatin everywere i just get it here.Thank you so much for doing that video and your helpfull explanation.From France.
New stimulus plan:
No more youtube taxes 😁
If settle for a flat 10% on anyone making less than $5M
@@RobertoBlake I'll sign THAT Petition!
YESSS! Propose THAT stimulus plan!
Roberto Blake what is your RUclips tax percent?
@@RobertoBlake yes please! I'll wait for an update
Thanks so much for making this after fielding the tweets as well. Much appreciated. :)
Thank you for this video!
I keep records separate. I also incorporated my business. Great video Roberto. Precise too!
Great advice Roberto! I’m starting to make some money on my channel now so this is becoming increasingly relevant for me.
This was very helpful and also very organized like your communications skills
Love your channel. Very helpful
Always great info Roberto! I will have to save this in my important folder list. 😎👍
thanks man
He's a business, man.
4:08 ... LOL 😆, that video clip was funny 🤣
Can you go into more details about the separate bank accounts and book keeping
Thanks for sharing this Roberto!
Fantastic video that answered all of my questions. Thank you!
Love that you’re covering such an important topic 💙💙 taxes are something that freak me out about getting into RUclips.
Wow. Very helpful. Thank you!
We could all have wireless repeaters with a built-in hard drive.
Like this, we would all have free internet and be able to share anything we want (up to the local law)
Also, don't forget we can use the electric cable as transmission since the invention of the telegraph
Fell like you made this for me i appreciate it so much. Giving it a few watches to make sure i got it.
This is very helpful Roberto (just like your other videos). Thanks!
great video! thanks!
Can you make a video on how to register youtube channel as a Business with state business licensing.
Nice video and great tips. This is going to come in handy as my channel grows, so thank you Roberto.
You explain this so well. Its so hard to explain to people how all this works.
When setting up your adsense how do you know what to classify yourself as for tax purposes?
It would liken be under entertainment but you’ll want to ask an accountant
Well explained. Got my like.
WOW! I just started my channel Five days ago and thanks for the information.
Excellent Video! No nonsense and very informative. Thank you!!
I opened an LLC and it helps lots.
Hi Roberto. This was very informative. Thanks a lot.
This is so good. This is why Roberto is the BOMB.
Thank you Robert😊
I get taxed about 20% of my RUclips Adsense earnings by America. Also have to pay an extra 20% from the uk as well 😅
What about declaring a tax treaty?
Meaning you only pay one country the 20% is that not available for the UK and US ?
Thank you for this informative video, it really helped a lot!
You’re the best!! this was informative and concise 💃🏼💯
This was a very great and informative video!

Here's a question. When I pay the IRS personally, do I need to pay them each month, or will it all come out in the wash in my taxes each April?
Thanks for sharing
This is great ! Thank you!!!
Let's take the moment to appreciate how much effort he puts into the content for us
This was very useful thank you good sir!
