As an increasingly large portion of the American workforce finds itself employed on a contract or freelance basis, 1099 forms have become a far more common way of reporting income than in years passed. Despite this growing prevalence, many employers and workers aren't fully aware of their rights, responsibilities and reporting obligations when it comes to 1099 income. If you're a tax professional, business owner or freelance employee, taking an online 1099 training course is a great way to familiarize yourself with these and other relevant issues.

What Is a 1099?
A 1099 is a tax form that, like a W-2, reports an employee's income over the course of the year. Unlike W-2 forms, however, 1099s exclusively cover types of income other than conventional salaried and hourly wages. This can include work completed on a freelance or contract basis, income from investments or real estate transactions, and more.
While any taxable income must be reported on a personal return, the type and amount of this income will determine whether or not a 1099 is issued. For example, while any amount of income proceeding from a brokered or bartered exchange transaction must be reported (on a 1099-B), only merchant card and third-party network payments above $20,000 are issued a form (1099-K).
Clearly, tax law surrounding 1099 forms is complex. Our online 1099 training courses will help you ensure you’re meeting requirements and deadlines. We offer convenient training for busy professionals, with all webinar content developed and led by an experienced tax professional with working knowledge in this area.
