1099 - Where Is It?

[Sally Stitts]

Doesn't the IRS require that the 1099 forms be sent out by Jan. 31?

Have you received yours?
I have not.

I have a corp so I don't receive a 1099, but my stock broker isn't sending out 1099s until later this month. I had a vendor send his in February last year, too. Either the Jan. 1 rule no longer applies, or big companies are getting extensions.

[LifeinAsia]

The due date was extended to February 15 this year.

And the usual caveats apply for why you won't be getting one (earned less that $600, you're a corp., etc.).

I got mine from Google last week.

Fascinating.
Three responses, containing 4 answers.
I now know less than I did before.

1. Jan. 1 rule no longer applies
2. Big companies are getting extensions
3. Feb. 15 is the new deadline
4. Already sent out Feb. 1

Can I get second vote for ANY ONE of the offered answers?
That may help.

No, but I can add more confusion.

First, I mistyped my first response. Should say Jan. 31 rule no longer applies.

However, I met with my accountant this morning and he said that the deadline is still January 31 for 1099s being turned into the IRS but companies can ignore that date for 1099s to individuals because it is too much trouble for the IRS to make them comply.

The answers are not necessarily exclusive.
Regarding 1 & 3: not sure if this is a 1-time deal for 2012's 1099s, not an on-going change.
Regarding 2: it's not just big companies that can apply for an extension- anyone can file for a 30-day extension.

As all things U.S. tax-related, irs.gov is your friend. Maybe not the chummiest friend or the least obtuse friend, but a friend nonetheless.

Got mine almost two weeks ago.

Did you make more than $600? Google will not send you one if you made under $600

[jpch]

If it makes you feel any better I'm still waiting on mine for a couple other Ad Networks I use.

[Sally Stitts]

More fine comments, thank you.

No, but I can add more confusion.

I love it! All comments are valued.

Did you make more than $600?

Far, far more.

Got mine too.

Was mailed on Jan 25 from Mountain view.

Are you in the US?

[netmeg]

Far, far more.

Then you're probably eligible for email support, and you can ask them to confirm it's been sent out. Yay!

[Sally Stitts]

Yes! I got mine on the 8th, as well.

I am in California.

Mine was mailed on Jan. 25 from Mountain View, 94043, as well.
FOURTEEN days to go 40 miles? Sounds like they sat on a shelf for a while, after postmarking, or something.

Two more K than I had computed. I need to check the numbers.

I did notice that the NEW payment system goes back 2 months, and the OLD payment system goes back from 5 months, which leaves 3 missing months of data. No payment history access for me currently.
