W-9 filled out in Sharpie, photographed sideways, with a tasteful coffee stain.
Hunted through email inbox for vendor info
Had 16 spreadsheet tabs open at once
Client:
"Just use last year's info"
“We paid them as a contractor... but they’re actually an employee.”
"Oh wait, that was a reimbursement..." (...or was it?)
Watched Keeper's 1099 webinar with Nancy McClelland and Jennifer Dymond!
Client: “Why didn’t you remind me sooner?” (You reminded them 6 times.)
Subscribed to 1099problems.io
1099 prep done BEFORE January 20th using Keeper
Tasks auto-assigned in Keeper for 1099 season prep :)
Vendor paid by check AND PayPal
"The owner said they’re a sole prop AND an LLC."
“They only received $599, we don’t need a 1099 right?”
Used Keeper's Prepare 1099 Report
Chased a W-9 for 3 weeks (or more)
Tracked 1099 vendors in a spreadsheet (again)
Finally got missing info!
... on January 30
Requested a
W-9 *again* this year only to see that the vendor is a C-Corp
Vendor won't return my W-9 request
Realized halfway through prep that client used personal funds
Entered TINs by hand for every vendor
Client insists we don't need a W-9
Filed MISC instead of NEC (oops!)
Said "I hate 1099 season" at least once
Booked a post-1099 season massage before 1099 season even started
Found untracked payments in Venmo
Drank 3 coffees in one day in the month of January
"But why do you need my social security number"
W-9 is just a blurry cellphone picture
Vendor's legal name doesn’t match their payment platform username — again.
"What's a 1099 again?"
Wished we the W-9 request process earlier in the year....
