This webinar will cover the rules requiring W-9 documentation and 1099 reporting for various types of Forms 1099 including interest, dividends, PATR, real estate transactions, and the famous Form 1099-Misc. Learn how to establish an independent contractor relationship with the proper documentation.
Under Section 2102 of the Taxpayer First Act, the IRS is developing an Internet portal that will allow taxpayers to file Form 1099 after December 31, 2022, electronically. Understand the rules and keep your company in compliance. Ensure that your records will stand the scrutiny of an IRS 3rd party documentation and reporting an audit. Avoid the onerous penalties for noncompliance and build the best defense against the 972-CG Notice of Proposed Penalty Letter.
