Title:

Understanding IRS Form 1099-NEC And Form 1099-MISC And Best Practices

SKU:WT-1010473
Format: Webcast/Audio Conference/Interview/Podcast
Description: In July 2019, the IRS issued a release draft of a new Form 1099 for use commencing in the 2020 tax year (i.e., in 2021), a Form 1099-NEC to replace the Form 1099-MISC, Box 7 and Box 9 for reporting direct sales of $5,000 or more.

This means that commencing in 2021, when reporting with regard to the 2020 calendar year, there are now two (2) different forms to consider (Form 1099-MISC and Form 1099-NEC), as opposed to one.

In this topic, we will focus on the new forms, and how to fill them out properly, with an emphasis on some of the confusion that exists. Boxes 3 and 7 of the Form 1099-MISC form, as well as knowing what items go on which form will be discussed.

Learn what reconfiguration may be needed of your accounting systems and ensure that you identify vendors that will now require the two different forms (for e.g., rents and lawn maintenance) and what training and communication will be needed to prevent confusion.

Issuers need to plan now on how to reconfigure their accounting systems, train and communicate with vendors, using best practices. Those best practices need to include Form W-9 preparation, and addressing backup withholding, and how to avoid penalties.

There are hot spots that also need to be addressed, such as how to distinguish employee compensation from nonemployee compensation, addressing Section 530 issues, and spotting when fraudulent forms 1099 are issued implicating Section 7434 claims.

Many accounts payable and accounting departments struggle with correctly completing Form 1099-MISC. They often do not know how to issue a 1099-MISC to disregarded entities or how to report special payments such as legal settlements or payments made after the death of an employee.

Payable departments often miss deadlines when responding to IRS B notices which can result in penalties. This material will help those responsible for issuing these forms to collect the pertinent information to complete a correct 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC form.

Information covered includes new issues for reporting, how to report to disregarded entities, how to report medical payments, and legal settlements and the proper reporting for payments made after the death of an employee. Failing to properly complete and file these forms is a common issue which exists for all payers, both for-profit and not-for-profit entities. The result of issuing incorrect forms is often penalties imposed on the payer.

This information will help payers avoid penalties as well as limit the number of corrected forms they will have to prepare.
