How many copies of 1099's go to a vendor

Sorry I didnt'see this post earlier. . .

You give copy B an C to the vendor.

Copy A gets sent with your 1096 to the IRS.

Hi I'm confused.

Where does copy 1 go to?

Copy b and c got to 1099 vendor right

I'm confused. Copy C says "For Payer". I assumed that's me?

On the forms:

Copy B: For recipient (I send to Vendor)
Copy 1: State Tax Dept (I send to state tax dept)
Copy C: For payer (I keep??)
Copy 2: To be filed with recipients state income tax return (I send to vendor?)

I need clarification also!

Copy B goes to the vendor - due by Jan 31.

Make copy of your 1096 and keep Copy C for yourself.

Copy A (Red copy) goes with the 1096- -due by Feb 29.

Where do i mail Copy 1 to? The state?

Copy 1?

Copy 1 is for the state that is what it says on the form. Do i give this copy to the vendor that I 1099'd for them to file with the state like how I will file with the IRS.

Does California State get a copy of the 1099 from the payor or just from the payee?????

I, too would like to know where to send Copy 1 for state tax department. Do I send it with the recipient's copy or do I send it to my state?

Hi!
My company operates in NY and I called the NYS Tax office and they advised many states have joined in a share program with the IRS. States that are part of this program will get the 1099 information from the IRS, so when you file the red form with the IRS that's all you need to do, the state will get the info from them. The copy 1 form can either be sent to the contractor or thrown away. So you would need to call your state Tax office and find out if they are part of the program or not. For those of you in NY. NY is part of the IRS program!

Thanks!

Most of us buy 1099 forms at Staples, who sell a 5-copy 1099 packet. So the question is, where do all the forms go? It appears that:

Red: Goes to IRS.

Copy B, For Recipient: Goes to vendor

Copy 2, To be filled with recipient's state...: Goes to vendor.

Copy 1, For State Tax Dept: Goes where?

Copy C, For Payer: Goes where?

In PA, copy 1 only gets sent to the state IF we withheld state tax. We don't withhold state tax so we just keep it with our Copy C - which is our file copy.

Not sure about other states, but, the form we use to mail copies of W2's to the state asks us to also attach any 1099's if we have withheld state tax.

We work with vendors all over the country. Are we supposed to send Copy 1 to the state tax dept for each vendor?

Thanks

I am laughing. That is so funny - and sad at the same time. Why make this so confusing? Taxes make me laugh, because they make no sense. I just read this stuff exactly as it is printed, even though it usually makes no sense. And, then I just do exactly what it say -- so confusing and makes no sense. I am still laughing out loud.
