Independent Contractor
If you pay independent contractors, you may have to file Form 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Income, to report payments for services performed for your trade or business. If the following four conditions are met, you must generally report a payment as nonemployee compensation.
You made the payment to someone who is not your employee;
You made the payment for services in the course of your trade or business (including government agencies and nonprofit organizations);
You made the payment to an individual, partnership, estate, or in some cases, a corporation; and
You made payments to the payee of at least $600 during the year.
Have you paid anyone $600 or more?
Do you have a contract with the people you paid $600 or more?
Did they provide you with all the documentation needed to be your independent contractor?
Have you hired your KIDS yet? WHY NOT?
