I will be receiving a referral of $1,500 from a recruiting company that I sent a candidate to. Note, this is not my employer, but an independent agency that I have no affiliation with (other than having a friend I sent their way who got a job through them).
I imagine I'll report it on my federal/state income taxes?
Are there any additional taxes I should pay on it?
I'm not sure how they'll remit payment yet (they mentioned it can range from Paypal to getting a check in the mail - they are relatively new start-up).
Any suggestions on what I need to gather or report when it comes time?
Thanks!
P.S. Here is the company's referral page for reference -
