Why should you attend this webinar?
The regulatory landscape for Form 1099 compliance keeps shifting as Congress attempts to balance jobs growth with narrowing the tax gap and the IRS attempts to address fraud and identity theft issues involving information returns including 1099 Forms. Over the past decade a number of changes were written into the law and regulations. While some changes have been implemented and others have been repealed, all of them created compliance challenges for businesses.
To prevent fraud involving information returns and false refund claims, the filing deadlines for certain 1099 Forms has been moved up. The IRS recognized the potential for an increase in the number of errors on filed 1099 Forms and has revised the de minimis error rules. In addition, penalties for non-compliance have been increased and are now indexed for inflation.
