Description
Congress delayed the deadline to February 15 for Form 1099 reporting for payers using a Consolidated Form 1099. Forms 1099-B, 1099-DIV, 1099-INT and 1099-OID plus 1099-MISC are combined into one document for the client and the IRS. This change has made 1099s more confusing than ever; especially those related to fixed income securities. In this course, we'll go over the reporting on Forms 1099, explain how the information provided to IRS differs from the backup material in the form; and how to report it all correctly.
