End of Year Tax Filings: Form 1099-MISC

By Glenna Mae Hendricks, E.A.

The first of the year is very fast approaching. This means it is very important for all business owners to start gathering the information needed to file Form 1099-MISC for each sub-contractor who has been commissioned to do work for you and who you paid more than $600 total for the entire year.

The IRS has all the particulars of what is required to file and exactly what they expect to see in each box on the 1099.

Now, for the easy part:  FileTaxes.com has a shiny, new, free iPhone app that can be used to file from your phone, import contacts & track the status of your filings.
