Going to put a marker down and say do not be lovely in this thread. Help out, ask questions, but don't be a dick about where this came from or the fund itself. This goonfund has done important work helping other goons.

As someone somewhat knowledgeable about tax stuff, I will recommend you talk to a tax practitioner about the 1099-K stuff that's going to come down the pike at the end of the year. It's going to apply to anyone/entity with over $600 in receipts from Venmo and other sorts of third party cash apps and, I'll be honest, the IRS hasn't done a great job at communicating the coming problems that are inevitably gonna occur because of the cliff from $20k in gross to $600 I'm not sure how that works with a 501c3 but I'd recommend keeping an eye out regardless because they're definitely going to be looking at compliance around that form come tax season

syntaxfunction posted:So we should be laundering money from international sources to the US to donate? That seems like it'd work with zero consequences. Jokes are fine, saying things that could cause a lot of hardship and/or close down a source of help for goons are not. Don't joke like this.

Velvet Sparrow posted:I was just diagnosed with critical aortic stenosis because I apparently have at least 2, possibly 3, defective heart valves. Turns out I was born with bifurcated heart valves instead of the standard trifurcated valves, so my heart isn't working for crap and I need a valve job. Unfortunately, we've put a moratorium on personal GoFundMes and the like. As much as I want to say yes, site policy says no. Happy to take this to PMs if you want to discuss further.

I'm really impressed at how formal this is. Like y'all doing this by the absolute book, which is great!

blight rhino posted:I'm CONUS, but I'm curious. Could you just find a CONUS goon you trust, and send it to them, and they send it in? That would not be advisable and a good way for the IRS to find reasons to dig into the finances. To be clear, I absolutely believe everything is on the up and up here and they would find nothing, but I do not think we should be recommending this. It would take time, money and effort to deal with this when it could be going towards helping goons in need

All right so apparently if you're foreign, you can donate to US charities https://www.nonprofitissues.com/to-the-point/may-charity-accept-gifts-foreigners However, they're not tax deductible for obvious reasons. Again, double check with the tax professional because this was the best resource I could find

marshmallow creep posted:I have a question and don't know where to ask, so I'll try here. A friend of mine has a gofundme to raise funds for a lawyer so she can see her son. Long story short, she's trans, ex-wife is mad she's trans and has been bankrupting her with frivolous lawsuits and she now needs 3.5k to pay for a lawyer with a deadline of March 19th. I feel like there are people here who would be able to help her, but I don't know where to post. I'll let RQC speak to the Goonfund portion of this, but site policy says we can't do personal fundraisers for various reasons. Unfortunately this part is out of my hands because it comes straight down from management.

You can ask the Goonfund for a money request but we cannot allow personal fundraisers. I'm sorry but it's site policy.
