Why did I receive Form 1099-NEC?

Receiving 1099-NEC means that the payer did not consider you as an employee and did not withhold income tax, social security tax, or Medicare tax from your compensation.

In case you are an employee and unable to get the payer to correct the Form 1099-NEC, report the amount on the line for “Wages, salaries, tips, etc.” of Form 1040, Individual Income Tax Return; Form 1040-SR, U.S. Tax Return for Seniors; or Form 1040-NR, US Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return. Please note that you must also complete Form 8919, Uncollected Social Security and Medicare Tax on Wages, and attach it to your return.

If you are not an employee but the amount in this box is not self-employment (SE) income such as income from a sporadic activity or a hobby, report this amount on the “Other income” line of Schedule 1 of Form 1040.

When to submit Form 1099-NEC?

Payers must file these forms by the 31st day of January, every year. Usually, there is no 30-day extension to submit Form 1099-NEC, and the extension is only applicable for a business that encounters hardships.

What is the difference between Form 1099-MISC and Form 1099-NEC?

The IRS has removed reporting for nonemployee compensation from Form 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Income since 2020. Thus, the IRS redesigned Form 1099-MISC, and people that need to report nonemployee compensation must use Form 1099-NEC.

What are 1099 forms?

Taxpayers use 1099 forms to report specific types of income they have earned the whole year. It is especially important for taxpayers to record the non-employment income they earn. Since there are many ways to earn non-employment income, there are also various types of 1099 forms. Non-employment income includes: (but is not limited to)

  • Cash dividends paid for owning a stock
  • Interest income from a bank account
  • Rents
  • Prizes and awards

Why is there a deadline for filing information returns?

Deadlines for filing information returns help with fraud detection. It helps the IRS easily detect refund fraud by verifying the income that individuals report on their tax returns.
