Be careful. My understanding is that if you pay any person $600 or more in one calendar year you are required to report their SSN on a 1099. We pay outside trainers for our software. We always get their SSN and store it in their vendor record. If their receipts in one year reach $600 they get a 1099. I do not think any reporting is required for payments to corporations.
Of course, I believe you are allowed to give anyone $11,000 per year tax free. We would need a tax guy to tell all the different twists on this. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gil Hale" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2008 8:49 AM Subject: RE: Amount of money deposited into banks and IRS But I feel it is flat out an invasion of my privacy. If I want to pay someone a $20k reward for a job well done, it is not my responsibility to make certain they pay taxes on that amount. I should not have to act in a "suspicous or criminal-like manner" with smaller disbursements over a few weeks from several banks to get what I want done. Yet that is exactly what is going on.
