Michael Bernhard Hiring a contractor-do i need a 1099, etc?
6 May 2017 | 11 replies
So, let me summarize for anyone viewing this later (some of this is from the above notes and some of this is from discussions with my tax advisor):  (1) It is best to get a contract when using a service provider; worst case, get a quote that include TAX ID, business name and business address (2) Always get a W9 when using a service provider; my advisor told me that you can probably get away without obtaining a W9 from a national provider like Home Depot, Sears Home, etc, but technically the IRS expects you to get the W9; the burden of proof lies with you to prove you did not need to send a 1099, so in the case of Home Depot, etc, it is highly unlikely the IRS would fine you for not sending a 1099.(3) Using the TAX ID and business name provided on the W9 or quote, perform "TIN Verification" to verify that the business name matches the Tax ID; this can be done for $1 using a web site called www.1099online.com - or use any service you like to do this(4) There is no need to issue a 1099 to a corporation or LLC;  You are allowed to send 1099s to corps and LLCs, but those organizations are allowed to toss them out(5) Whenever more than $600 is paid to a sole proprietor (i.e. a company that is not a corp or LLC) then the IRS requires that you issue a 1099 to that sole proprietor.

I could be wrong on this, but with almost all phones having web access these days, even if they don't have a computer at home, they may have access on their phone, or have access to a computer at work or at the library.
