- 14 December 2022
The 1099-NEC form is an information tax form used to report payments made to nonemployees for services that are not related to their trade or business. It is used to report payments of $600 or more that are made to individuals, partnerships, and other non-corporate entities. This form is similar to the 1099-MISC form, which is used to report payments to independent contractors.
When filling out a 1099-NEC form, you will need to provide information about both the payer and the recipient. For the payer, you will need to provide their name, address, and taxpayer identification number (TIN). For the recipient, you also have to provide their personal information (name, address, and TIN). You will also need to provide the total amount of payments made to the recipient.
The 1099-NEC form is due to the IRS by January 31st of the year following the year in which the payments were made. You can submit the form electronically or by paper. To submit the form electronically, you will need to use one of the IRS’s authorized services. If you choose to submit the form by paper, you will need to mail it to the IRS.
When filing the 1099-NEC form, it is important to double-check all of the information you provide. You must make sure that all of the information is accurate and complete. If any of the information is incorrect or incomplete, the IRS may reject your filing and you may be subject to penalties and interest.
