Congress is sending a tax bill to the President that will ease up the 1099 reporting requirements created by the Health Bill.  The 1099 provision required businesses, charities and state and local governments to file a 1099 form with the Internal Revenue Service to report annual purchases  from contractors above $600.  The bill also would repeal the following:

  • Business payments of $600 or more made to a corporation;
  • Amounts paid in consideration for property and other gross proceeds for both property and services; and
  • Payments of $600 or more made to a service provider by recipients of income from rental real estate.

For more information see the Senate bill under Accounting today.  The President is expected to sign it into law.
