Title: 1099s available for download at SS and BS
Post by: click_click on January 11, 2012, 16:44
This year the 1099s for SS and BS are available for download now.

Very convenient and quick.

Hopefully we don't get another 3 updated versions in the upcoming weeks... LOL

What a great feature!  Don't have to worry about it getting lost in the mail.  My taxes actually got lost in the mail one year.

Got mine earlier today as well.  Now I just gotta wait for everyone else to either do that or send them in the mail.  It would be nice if they would all make it that convenient for us.

Is that just a report?

1099s are the tax forms US residents send to the IRS.

Tnx, I thought so. And it's also a report for the rest of the world that some country they have nothing to do with is taking 5% of their earnings :D (it's even worse if you actually get double-taxed). Not to mention that some get get 30% deducted (if your country doesn't have the W-8 or what it's called, agreement with US signed).

I suppose I can go look, but since I have multiple of sources of income, beyond MicroStock, I'll be waiting anyway. Good news that I can go see what they say and file them.  :D

I got mine also.  Very convenient.  Would love to see the other sites implement something like this :)

I had to open a PDF document that contained my password. It's not your account password.
There was link right underneath where I had to open the PDF to get to the password.

Thanks so much...I opened that PDF document and wondered why there was some strange word in there...I didn't realize that was the verification word. I got it now and thanks again.
