How To Find Your 1099 On OnlyFans

If you’re earning money on OnlyFans and based in the U.S., taxes aren’t just something to “think about later.” The IRS is expecting a little paperwork from you, and that means you need your 1099 form. But where is it? How do you actually find it on OnlyFans? And more importantly, what should you do with it once you have it?

Let’s make sense of it without boring you to death. We’ll keep this as real and useful as possible.

What Is a 1099 Form and Why It Matters for OnlyFans Creators

If you’ve made $600 or more on OnlyFans within a calendar year and you’re a U.S.-based creator, you should receive a 1099 form from Fenix International (that’s the company behind OnlyFans).

A 1099 form is basically a report sent to both you and the IRS that shows how much you earned. Think of it as the IRS’s way of making sure they get their share of your spicy hustle. Unlike a W-2, where taxes are pre-deducted, your 1099 earnings are fully yours — but you're responsible for reporting and paying tax on them.

If you're outside the U.S., your OnlyFans taxes will work differently. In that case, skip this form entirely and head over to our post on how OnlyFans reports to the IRS.
