This 120-minute webinar covers Forms 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC in detail: reporting requirements for different types of payments and payees, filing and withholding requirements, and reporting guidelines.
You'll review filing due dates and penalties for returns that are filed or furnished late, and ways to prevent or reduce penalties, including the safe harbor for de minimis dollar errors and the reasonable cause defense.
The session also covers practical penalty prevention: verifying taxpayer identification numbers, applying backup withholding, responding to B-notices, following sound filing procedures and fixing errors. It explains how to use Form W-9 to document payees and the IRS Guide to Information Returns.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
The IRS is targeting accounts payable operations, and penalties for noncompliance are indexed and rise each year. You need to know which form to use, when it's due, what to include, how to correct errors, when backup withholding applies and which due diligence steps protect you even when a form is wrong.
The session suits CFOs, controllers, AP and accounting staff, employers and business owners, purchasing professionals, public accountants, CPAs and enrolled agents.
