Declaring eBay stealth income with ATO
Hey everyone, long time lurker first time poster- great to finally be a member!
I have a very noob question. So I've had a stealth account going strong for a year or so now. I'm withdrawing my PayPal funds to a savings account (one of multiples with the same bank.)
I've never declared the income when filing my taxes and it's been playing on my mind lately, knowing that I'm potentially putting myself at risk and being dodgy. And obviously, I really don't want to get caught out. Im just an individual seller with no business I can put the income through.
So I'm wondering, how do I go about declaring the income even though the account is stealth? Do the ATO look at the names of the eBay and PP accounts? Obviously the eBay and PP accounts are under an alias, but the bank account the money comes into is under my name. Income is anywhere between $400- $1000 per month.
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Cheers!
