I get asked for ein from our commercial jobs and every once in a while from a business owner. Never got one from a residential job. The rental is a business so I cant see why not. If they Don't have your ein does it really make a difference??

I got a strange email, not that it's bad just wondering what it's all about.

Here it is, I'm taking the names out to protect the innocent. :laughing: My question is shouldn't I of filled out a w-9 for this? Because they never requested one.



Hi Mike,

I am working on our taxes and trying to get a final accounting of how much we spent on the house in 2013. Do you have a record of the total we paid you, including the fence? I have a grand total of $139,194.45. That includes checks made to MLW Construction and to ................ Does this agree with your records?

The house is renting well so far and everyone loves it. Our contractor friend who stayed there thought that your work was excellent.

They didn't send it yet. But your right I didn't think about that, it has to be mailed by jan. 31, I think. But that doesn't stop them from claiming the payments, not that it matters I just need to check that I claimed all the money properly. I've got a call out to my bookkeeper. Of course we all claim everything it's the right thing to do.

I don't get the point of 1099 really. It's not like a check written in my business name can be deposited anywhere else other than the business.

 

[Calidecks]

They made some of the checks to my personal name. She wrote them to me, he wrote them to my company. They sent them in the mail. But if I remember right they were all deposited into my business account. I'm checking with my bookkeeper to make sure.

This happened to me where my company and 4 others did work for a customer, on his personal home, who owned an excavation company. None of us received 1099's although he said we did and filed a fraudulent tax return which when he got caught it triggered an audit to the other 5 companies. When I called all he could say was, "I am sorry Everett I screwed up, I am really sorry." What do you say after that? No matter what you do I would dot my "I's" and cross my "T's" because it was told to me that 1099's are more closely scrutinized and usually lead to other issues.

 

[Calidecks]

My bookkeeper said I'm bulletproof! This why you claim what's paid to you!

Some landlords send out 1099s and some don't.

Some CPAs say you landlords have to send them out and some CPAs say landlords don't have to send them out.

I'm in the camp that says Landlords are investors and they are not in business so they don't have to send out 1099s.

 

[B.D.R.]

I don't understand what a 1099 is.
If you gave them a invoice for the work you did, would that not be sufficient?

 

[Calidecks]

My plumber gives me an invoice I still 1099 him. It's the law, on anything over 600 bucks. But I'm not sure how that works with a rental property

You added that in! :laughing: :jester:

 

[kiteman]

It's been my understanding that if your sub is incorporated, you're not required to give them a 1099. That's how it works for me here, as a sub. I think it's because of corporate banking regs.

 

[Calidecks]

I did not. Lol

I got a 1099 from a residential customer before but they wrote the check from their business account. Even thou the roof I did had nothing to do with their business.

I read awhile back that in IL ,starting 2012 that all Landlords must send out 1099 to all workers they pay over $600

Isn't 1099's federal?

 

[stombaugh85]

Isn't 1099's federal?

I guess so. . . . .When I read the law I must have assumed it was just Illinois. It didn't pertain to me so I never really thought about it that much but yes I believe your right. It is Federal:clap:
