New 1099 Rules Starting in 2012


Starting in 2012, self-employed workers, small businesses, charities and government agencies will be required to issue Form 1099s to every vendor from which they purchase more than $600 in goods during the year.
For example, a self-employed consultant who buys a $700 computer from an office supply store would be required to send a Form 1099 to the store and the IRS.
Currently, businesses are required to provide Form 1099s for services, such as payments to independent contractors, but not for goods.
