already having an old party ccount i cannot immediately take advantage of rakeback under my own identity.
a number of affiliates recommend using a family member or friend's identity when creating a new account and this is what many players have resorted to in order to get properly signed up at party. a question i have regarding this practice is are there any important tax implications that i should be aware of. if i am passing $100k+ through someone else's identity, could this complicate tax issues for both parties involved? any information is much appreciated. |

You will both definatly have tax 'issues'. You will want to discuss this with a professional.

I feel sure there will be hundreds if not thousands of wives/girlfriends out there filing as a professional gambler just for this reason.

Ask a CPA. What you'll get here is mostly conjecture.

If you use your wife's identity and file jointly anyway, I don't see the problem.
However, using your brothers', your mom's, or a buddy's is going to be a sticky situation. |

I don't plan to pay any taxes on *****... I've actually never even though hard about this (i definitely am not in the $100K range that previous poster just threw out there however)... am I in the minority or majority of forum readers planning to do this?

a question i have regarding this practice is are there any important tax implications that i should be aware of. [/ QUOTE ] As long as you are paying taxes on your poker winnings, there should not be any problems. You have constructive control over the "foreign" accounts. It is worth noting that, if at any time during the year, you have more 10K combined under your control in foreign assets (that would be Neteller+all Poker rooms + anything else), that you are required to file a disclosure document! The possible penalties for not filing the disclosure are as severe as not paying your taxes. You should reveiew your financial situation with a qualified tax advisor! |
