Tip Form 4070 is an IRS form used to report tips received by an employee. The employee must complete the form and submit it to their employer by the end of the month in which the tips were received. The employer is then responsible for forwarding the form to the IRS.
Tips are considered taxable income and must be reported on Form 4070. The amount of tax owed on tips is calculated using the employee's marginal tax rate.
