For U.S. creators, refer to the Self-Employment Tax legislation for guidance. #### **4 things you need to report on your taxes** This is not a complete list of what qualifies and what doesn’t, but according to the guidelines given by the IRS, you should make sure you report things like: - **Brand Partnerships**: Do you have a podcast or a video channel that a brand is sponsoring? You need to include what you’re paid as income. - **Products**: If you get a product from a brand to review, such as a laptop, camera, gym gear, or nutritional supplements, you have to report that as income at its fair market value. - **Sponsored Posts**: Typically a brand will pay you money as the creator of content – it can be a video or a post. This would also include social media promotion. Again, this is something you need to include. - **Ads**: Any income you receive from ads needs to be counted as income. - [Frequently Asked Questions](https://help-creators.insense.pro/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en) - [Getting Started](https://help-creators.insense.pro/getting-started?hsLang=en) - [Applying for Collabs](https://help-creators.insense.pro/applying-for-collabs?hsLang=en) - [Getting Hired](https://help-creators.insense.pro/getting-hired?hsLang=en) - [Understanding Modular UGC Campaigns](https://help-creators.insense.pro/understanding-modular-ugc-campaigns?hsLang=en) - [Understanding Campaigns with Ads](https://help-creators.insense.pro/understanding-campaigns-with-ads?hsLang=en) - [Getting Paid](https://help-creators.insense.pro/getting-paid?hsLang=en) - [Ratings and Badges](https://help-creators.insense.pro/ratings-and-badges?hsLang=en) - [Educational Content](https://help-creators.insense.pro/educational-content?hsLang=en) - [Creator Community Guidelines](https://help-creators.insense.pro/creator-community-guidelines?hsLang=en) - [Terms of Service](https://help-creators.insense.pro/terms-of-service?hsLang=en) [![INSENSE LOGO](https://help-creators.insense.pro/hubfs/INSENSE_LOGO-4.svg "INSENSE LOGO")](https://insense.pro) [mailto:hello@insense.pro](mailto:hello@insense.pro) Copyright © 2025, Insense Ads Inc.
