notary fees
most court awards or damages
fees or property received for services or barter income
prizes, awards, gambling winnings, and illegal specific certain scholarships,
fellowships, and grants
What's not taxable income?
Nontaxable income won't be taxed, whether or not the taxpayer enters it on their tax return.
The following items are deemed nontaxable by the IRS:
Inheritances, gifts, and bequests
Cash rebates on items purchased from a retailer, manufacturer, or dealer
Alimony payments (for divorce decrees finalized after 2018)
Child support payments
Most healthcare benefits
Money reimbursed from qualifying adoptions
Welfare payments
Under certain circumstances, the following items may be nontaxable.
Money the taxpayer receives from a life insurance policy when someone dies is not
taxable. However, if the taxpayer cashes in a life insurance policy, then a portion, if
not all of it, is likely taxable.
Money from a qualified scholarship is not taxable. However, if the taxpayer uses the
money for room and board or uses it to pay other personal expenses, that portion is
normally taxable.
Compensation
Generally, taxpayers can receive income in three ways: money, services, and property.
But, the taxpayer can also pay tax on income not yet in their possession. For example, if

the taxpayer receives a check but doesn't cash it by the end of the tax year, it is still
considered income for the year they received the check.
The IRS requires taxpayers to declare all income on their returns. Income can include:
Wages
Salaries
Commissions
Strike pay
Rental income
Alimony (for divorce decrees finalized before 2019)
Royalty payments
Stock options, dividends, and interest
Self-employment income
Typically, unemployment compensation is also considered taxable income. However, for
the 2020 tax year, up to $10,200 of unemployment benefits can be excluded from income.
If the taxpayers are married, each spouse can exclude this amount. Amounts over this
remain taxable, and if their modified adjusted gross income (AGI) is greater than $150,000,
then they can't exclude any unemployment compensation.
Income from fringe benefits
If the taxpayer receives fringe benefits for services rendered, those benefits are usually
considered taxable income, even if someone else receives them, such as the taxpayer's
spouse. These taxable benefits and perks may include:
A company-paid off-site gym membership
A company vehicle for personal use
Holiday gifts in the form of cash or gift certificates from their employer
A certain portion of employer-paid dependent care
Company-paid tuition fees over a certain amount
