A 1099-MISC form: what is it? A tax information form called the 1099-MISC is often used to report any payments made to a contractor or service provider. This aids the IRS in keeping track of how much tax revenue contractors and independent contractors will likely generate. In contrast to regular, W-2 employees, who have their taxes routinely withheld by employers, independent contractors, considered to be a “business-of-one” when contracting, are responsible for managing their own taxes.
Who submits a form 1099-MISC?
The organization or business owner who pays the service provider or contractor for their services must report such payments to the IRS and submit a copy to the payment recipient, who may be a service provider or contractor.
The 1099-NEC will now be used by many companies who previously filed the 1099-MISC to record non-employee compensation in Box 7.
Who gets a form 1099-MISC?
Both the service provider or contractor and the IRS receive copies—either through electronic filing or print mailing—for their records. Normally, businesses are only required to submit 1099-MISCs to service providers or contractors who have received $600 or more in compensation in a calendar year and who are based in the US or are US taxpayers.
Deadlines:
The IRS must receive 2022 tax forms by January 20, 2023, via Stripe 1099. By doing this, the forms will be submitted to the IRS and a copy will be mailed to the beneficiaries in time for the January 31, 2023 IRS deadline.
Factors for 1099-MISC state filing:
Remember that your state can also have specifications and distinct due dates for submitting and reporting 1099-MISCs. To find out what paperwork you need to file with your state, we advise speaking with a tax advisor.
E-filing 1099-MISCs with the IRS versus mailing them
Anyone who issues more than 250 1099 forms must electronically file tax returns with the IRS. It is permitted to e-file even if fewer than 250 forms are being submitted.
Penalties:
You may be subject to IRS fines of $50 to $280 per form if any of the following occur:
- Don’t submit an information return by the due date to the IRS.
- Don’t deliver the statement to the receiver by the due date
- Keep your Taxpayer ID (TIN) a secret
- Please report a false TIN.
- Declare false information
- Don’t give the receiver all the information they need.
When compelled to e-file with the IRS, do not do so.
If willful disrespect or neglect is proven, harsher punishments may be applied.
