Ms Marie Vaux, Curriculum Lead & Teacher of ICT, Portsmouth College

The Unit 9 Assignments 1 & 3 is relatively straightforward, except that there is a lot of content to cover which could get missed. As part of the RQF BTEC assessment procedures, assessors are not allowed to give students a list of tasks to cover to achieve a grade once the assignment is running. This means that learners can often forget to include key pieces of evidence, or to not provide evidence in the right format. Unit 9 Assignment 2 is awkward as students are required to plan and monitor a project, ideally one of the other BTEC practical units. They will need to create new documentation as well as know which documentation they can reuse. They will need to clearly show evidence of a project plan evolving to demonstrate effective management of a project. TheComputingTutor is pleased to announce the release of a full set of Assignment Resources for the Edexel BTEC IT UNIT 9 Project Management. The resources include: • A full set of Student Guide Assignment Resources for Learning Aims A, B, C and D. • A Teacher presentation showing your students how to approach each of the Learning Aims. • An editable PowerPoint and a printable PDF for each Student Guide. • Separate Student Guides for Pass, Merit and Distinction criteria. • Example PDF templates for the Project Log and Project Requirements document. • A set of real world case studies are included for the different project management methodologies required for Learning Aim A - Agile, Rad, Waterfall and PRINCE2. Also included are a set of teacher notes which include: • Suggestions and ideas on Unit delivery. • Ideas for the practical unit as well as alternate solutions​. • Suggestions for accessing the Merit and Distinction criteria. • A map of the documentation produced by other units that can be reused in Unit 9, to minimise duplication.

Please note: this is not a theory resource; this resource focuses entirely on how to answer all the Assignment tasks.  Theory content is covered in the associated Scheme of Work.

Each Student Guide covers all the marking requirements for Pass criteria for Learning Aims A, B, C and D as well as showing extensive opportunities for where to include Merit and Distinction criteria evidence. The Student Guides are ideal for weaker candidates, or students struggling to organise their work, as it gives a simple, easy to follow checklist of all required Assignment criteria.  You can use these learning resources for individual students who are finding the Assignment procedure challenging, or you can give the Guides to your entire group before they start each Assignment - the choice is yours.  The Student Guides only contain the required Assignment content headings, the actual theory content taught is contained in the Scheme of Work that accompanies this unit. You have full control of each PowerPoint, so you can edit the slides and move them around to suit your teaching and the needs of your classroom. These resources will help your learners to know exactly what they have to do to independently achieve their grades.

" The resources were so helpful and saved me hours of planning, they included a full SOW and there were presentations organised lesson by lesson. I was struggling to find appropriate case studies for each of the methods which are required for the first assignment, but there were many included to choose from.   These were foolproof to follow and to be honest I’m not sure what I would have done without them! Thank you!"

IR-2024-57, March 1, 2024

WASHINGTON — To help taxpayers with filing, the Internal Revenue Service today debunked some common myths to help taxpayers understand what to do with Form 1099-K .

Following feedback from partners and to help avoid taxpayer confusion, the IRS  announced in Nov. 2023, that the reporting threshold for Form 1099-K, Payment Card and Third Party Network Transactions , would not change for 2023. The reporting threshold requirements remain over $20,000 in payments and over 200 transactions.

The IRS continues to see misinformation circulating about why taxpayers may or may not have received a Form 1099-K. Here are some common scenarios involving these forms. More information is also available at IRS.gov for what to do with Form 1099-K and frequently asked questions .

1099-K facts vs myths

Myth: People will get a Form 1099-K from friends and family sending them personal payments.

Fact: Payments from friends and family should generally not be reported on a Form 1099-K. Form 1099-K reports payments for goods or services and should not report personal payments like rent, dinner, travel and other gifts or reimbursements gifts, no matter the amount. Generally, in payment apps, the default is personal payments unless the sender designates that they’re purchasing goods or services, or it is designated a business account.

Myth: If taxpayers didn't receive a Form 1099-K, they don't have to report income.

Fact: According to federal law, all income is taxable unless it is specifically excluded by tax law. Taxpayers should report any profits from selling goods or services, regardless of if they receive a Form 1099-K.

Myth: Individuals won’t get a Form 1099-K if they sold goods or services under the $20,000 and 200 transactions payment threshold set for 2023 and previous tax years.

Fact: The 2023 federal reporting threshold of over $20,000 and 200 transactions is a reporting requirement, but companies may still send a Form 1099-K for goods or services payments that are less than that amount. Payment apps and marketplaces that have held backup withholding for a payee during calendar year 2023 must file a Form 945 and a Form 1099-K. Also, their state may have a lower reporting threshold, which could result in receiving a Form 1099-K, even if the total gross payments they received in the year did not exceed the federal reporting threshold.

Myth: Taxpayers owe taxes on the gross amount reported on the Form 1099-K.

Fact: The form provides the gross, or total amount of payments individuals got per app or marketplace. Just because a payment is reported on a Form 1099-K does not mean it is taxable. Taxpayers will need to use the form and other records to determine their actual tax liability when they file their tax return.

More information is available to help determine an individual’s tax obligations at IRS.gov What to do with Form 1099-K .

Myth: People can only get a 1099-K if they’re running a business.

Fact: People may receive a Form 1099-K from payment apps or online marketplaces they used to sell goods or services, or accepted payments from a bank card. See Form 1099-K FAQs on Fact Sheet 2024-03 PDF for more information.

Myth: People don’t need to do anything with their Form 1099-K.

Fact: Individuals should use the information on the Form 1099-K with their other tax records to determine their correct tax owed. See Understanding your Form 1099-K and visit the Form 1099-K frequently asked questions for more information.

Someone who receives a Form 1099-K when they shouldn't have should take these steps .

Myth: There’s nothing available to help individuals understand their Form 1099-K.

Fact: The IRS has a variety of sources to help people understand their form and report their taxes accurately. See IRS.gov Understanding your Form 1099-K , What to do with Form 1099-K and Form 1099-K frequently asked questions .
