Will I receive a 1099 or 1042 for my earnings?

If you processed a payout withdrawal from your dashboard in the previous fiscal year, That Pitch will issue your corresponding year-end tax documentation via email from money@thatpitch.com.

Tax Form Availability & Deadlines

To keep your personal accounting organized, year-end tax forms are compiled and distributed according to your residency status:

  • U.S. Based Users (1099-MISC): Forms will be made available by March 15th for any creator who surpassed the federal reporting thresholds for non-employee compensation or royalty distributions.

  • Non-U.S. Based Users (1042-S): Forms will be made available by March 15th detailing your foreign source income, tax treaty allocations, or applied withholding amounts.

Important Distribution Policies

  • Multiple Tax Identities: If you updated your tax profile or payout entity multiple times during the same fiscal year, each distinct payee identity will receive separate, segmented forms covering the exact withdrawals processed under that specific validated tax ID.

  • Document Delivery via Trolley: You may be securely directed to download your official documents directly from Trolley, our third-party payout processor and secure identity verification partner.

  • No W-2 Forms: Because all creators on That Pitch operate strictly as independent contractors or licensing entities, we do not provide W-2 forms under any circumstances.

⚠️ A Note on Tax Guidance Limits

Important Disclaimer: While That Pitch provides access to your transactional data and mandatory year-end tax documents, our support team is legally restricted from providing personalized tax advice, withholding calculations, or legal financial interpretations.

Tax rules and treaty regulations can vary wildly based on your state, country, or corporate structure. If you need assistance filing your forms, deciphering your brackets, or optimizing your write-offs, please consult a certified tax professional or CPA who can provide official advice tailored to your personal situation.

Simple version: If you withdrew earnings last year, your tax documents (1099-MISC for U.S. creators, 1042-S for international creators) will be available via email or your Trolley billing profile by March 15th. While we provide these mandatory reporting forms, That Pitch cannot offer personalized tax advice or withholding advice—please consult a certified accountant for specific filing questions.
