I am an Amway IBO. I received 1099-misc which only box 7 checked: payer made direct sales of $5000 or more of consumer products to a buyer for resale. But I did not make any money from this, only sell to friends with same price. I did get some BV money from Amway.
Does BV money need to be reported as income?
