Instructions for Form 1099-NEC
To use the 1099-NEC properly, you need to understand what is considered non-employee compensation.
Previously reported on Box 7 of the 1099-MISC, the new 1099-NEC will report any payments of $600 or more to nonemployee service providers, such as independent contractors, freelancers, vendors, consultants and other self-employed individuals (commonly referred to as 1099 workers).
According to the IRS, a combination of these four conditions makes a payment reportable on the 1099NEC:
- It is made to someone who is not your employee.
- It is made for services in the course of your trade or business.
- It was made to an individual, partnership, estate, or, in some cases, a corporation.
- Payments were $600 or more for the calendar year.
Examples of when to use 1099NEC forms:
- Professional service fees to attorneys, accountants or architects
- Fees paid by one professional to another
- Payments for services, including those for parts or materials used to perform the services, even if they were incidental
- Commissions paid to nonemployee salespeople, not repaid during the year
Exceptions:
- Payments for merchandise, phone, freight, storage or similar items.
- Payments to a tax-exempt organization, including tax-exempt trusts or governments.
