Is My Nonprofit Responsible For Filing 1099 Forms?
If nonprofit organizations are exempt from taxes, are they responsible for filing 1099 forms?
Has this question ever crossed your mind?
Nonprofit organizations are exempt from a lot, but filing 1099 Forms are not one of them.
Used by business owners to report non-employee compensation of $600 or more to an independent contractor, nonprofit organizations also utilize 1099 Forms to report prizes, awards, and additional payments.
