1099

In a nutshell, exceptions apply>>>>Anyone you pay by cash or check over $600 in a year gets a 1099 unless they are a full corporation with INC at the end of their name., although legal corporations do get a 1099. You do give  a 099 to an LLC, you do not give a 1099 to Intuit, Inc (as tempting as it might be. there is no penalty for issuing a 1099 to a corporation theta is exempt from getting one but Intuit will not respond to your W9 request for their tax ID)

So, your cleaning company and repair company - possibly. Your attorney? Absolutely. Also your tax CPA

The rule is : $600 Or More.

Yes, you would 1099 the Musician you hired, by first asking them for a W9 before they start playing; or at least, before making the gig payment that puts them at $600 or more.

Every Box on the 1099 has specific thresholds and rules. Example:

Box 1 = Rent for the landlord, unless the Landlord is a Professional Property Management Firm.

Box 6 = Medical payments, to the Provider by name or their corporation if they work under their own corporation.

Box 2 = $10 or more, for Royalties paid.

Having an INC in the name is Not Proof; get a W9.

When I use the QB 1099 processing wizard and choose my attorney, it won't prepare one?  Any thoughts?
