Posted by Milton Law Group

Since 2021, NCAA student-athletes have been allowed to receive compensation for their NIL from third parties outside their colleges and universities. As the NIL landscape continues to evolve—shaped by NCAA rules and IRS guidance—the OBBBA introduces new tax implications that student-athletes should understand. NIL Income: 1099 vs. W-2...

Posted by Milton Law Group
in News
