Twitch Streaming/Part Time Job Affecting Tax

Question

 · Accepted Answer

RenATO · Answer

A TIN is basically the American term for tax file number (TFN - what we use in Australia). If you're required to provide Twitch with your TFN, that will make you an employee and they'll need to provide you with an Income Statement (payment summary) at the end of the financial year. Tax will be payable on the amounts you earn if your total income (part-time job combined with Twitch income) is above the tax-free threshold ($18,200) in one financial year. If Twitch withholds tax from your income at the correct rate then you shouldn't receive a tax bill when you lodge your tax return.
