I'm certainly no expert, so I could be wrong, but I don't think they are*required* if the amount you earn is below a certain threshold. I'm not sure, but I want to say it's $700. If it isn't that, it's fairly close. However, they may be responsible for paying various taxes (social security, Medicare, etc.), so they should want the information. > >If I hire people to do small jobs like mowing the lawn, what is the >most I can pay without having to report it to the IRS? If they are an independent contractor, a 1099 form will be needed if they make over (I think) $700.00. You will have to report this to the IRS. -- Kent Aspire to inspire before you expire.
