Year-end 1099 reporting can be one of the most stressful times of year for AP departments, but it doesn’t have to be.

Register now for this focused 90-minute program and you’ll get answers to the most frequently asked 1099 reporting questions before you send the information to your payees and the IRS.

At this special audio conference, Marianne Couch, the industry-recognized leader in Form 1099 training, will answer and explain your most common—and most pressing—1099 reporting questions, including:

• What to do about your LLC payees
• Must you have a signed IRS Form W-9 to exempt payments or payees from reporting?
• How to tell the difference between a payment for goods, which is not reportable, and one for services, which is reportable (it's not as easy as it sounds)
• How the IRS defines "medical services" payments, for which there is no corporate exemption
• How to report payments made to hotels
• Whether the payment you made to an attorney is reportable in box 7 or box 14 of the Form 1099-MISC
• What kinds of payments are typically reported in box 3, the “other income” box, on the Form 1099-MISC
• What three events can trigger the obligation to backup withhold on a payment
• If you need to issue corrections for previously filed 1099s
• And more!
