Form 1099 Information Returns, Jerry S. Pierce Jr.

Rural Tax Education

The 1099 tax form is used to report various forms of income (other than wages, salaries, and tips) to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and to the recipient of the payment. Agriculture producers may both receive Form 1099 information returns and be required to issue them. The Form notifies the IRS and the recipient of the payment. The IRS will then look for the amounts from the Form 1099s to show up on the recipient’s Federal tax return. This article covers many 1099s that producers may encounter.
