What Is the 1099-INT Form? What to Do and How It Works

A Form 1099-INT will presumably be sent to you if you received interest. Here are the definitions and instructions for Form 1099-INT.

An interest payment you received throughout the tax year is documented on a 1099-INT tax form.

You might get one or more 1099-INT tax forms in the mail sometime in February. Keep it safe because it may have a significant effect on how you will be taxed in the future. This is how Form 1099-INT functions.

What is a tax form 1099-INT?

An interest payment from a bank or other organization is documented on a 1099-INT tax form. A 1099-INT will be given to you if the interest you received from a bank, brokerage, or other financial institution was greater than $10.

The 1099-INT is a typical variation of IRS Form 1099, which serves as proof that you received funds from a source other than your employment.

Your bank may have sent you this tax form if it gave you interest on your savings.

Your Social Security number or taxpayer identification number will be on the form, so the IRS will be aware that you have received interest and will also be aware if you failed to disclose that income on your tax return.

You don't necessarily have to owe taxes on that money just because you received this tax form. For instance, you might have tax deductions that cancel out the income, or some or all of it might be shielded due to features of the asset that produced it. In any case, keep in mind that the IRS is aware of it.

How should I handle a 1099-INT tax form?

You may determine how much income you made during the year and what kind of income it was by using your IRS Form 1099-INT. Depending on the type of income it was, you'll declare it in a different area on your tax return.

OP's description of how to walk a teenager through using a computer sounds shockingly similar to when I have to walkthrough or explain almost anything on a computer to my elderly boss or his wife, which is crazy because they're coming from the opposite end of the experience spectrum. Kids right now are growing up on a very different sort of system that they can use to interface with the internet, while the elderly have had to scramble to keep up with home computing for the last few decades, and many simply do not care to know how to use it.

The business we run is in real estate (and taxes on the side,) which is ever increasingly being moved online and out of paper and hardcopy documents. He can navigate his email and if something is a hyperlink and straightforward he can mostly figure it out, like podcast pages, but that's about it. His knowledge of how to operate a computer has not caught up to using tabs in a browser, for instance, which converted over in like, the early-mid aughts, because no matter how many times I tell him he can close out a tab, he closes the entire window. He knows I can login to the email when he does, but he doesn't really know what that means, because originally you needed software like Outlook to access email. "On the internet" and "on the computer" crisscross often in how he thinks file access works. If I'm at home, I can access a document he saw on an email but I can't access a file on the work computer, and sometimes he remembers that and other times he doesn't. He doesn't know how to navigate a file system afaik or operate a search engine because he's never, presumably, had to before with any regularity. He types on his keyboard like he's typing on a typewriter, a typewriter he still uses to fill out W2s and 1099 MISC forms.

It know it sounds like I'm just picking on a tech-illiterate old man, but to hear that OP has to tell 15 year olds the same sorts of things that you would hear from IT help calls when I was in highschool is completely culture shock to me. I always had this conception about computers that it was like the shore to the ocean and we were moving in one direction, from the shore of no common knowledge of personal computing out into the ocean of further diversified and growing computing tech and the bar of understanding continuing to increase along with it, but now I'm learning there's MORE SHORE on the other side??? I don't know maybe I'm just crazy out of touch or something.

So this was originally a response to this post:

****

****

Which is about people wanting an AO3 app, but then it became large and way off topic, so here you go.

Nobody under the age of 20 knows how to use a computer or the internet. At all. They only know how to use apps. Their whole lives are in their phones or *maybe* a tablet/iPad if they're an artist. This is becoming a huge concern.

I'm a private tutor for middle- and high-school students, and since 2020 my business has been 100% virtual. Either the student's on a tablet, which comes with its own series of problems for screen-sharing and file access, or they're on mom's or dad's computer, and they have zero understanding of it.

They also don't know what the internet is, or even the absolute basics of how it works. You might not think that's an important thing to know, but stick with me.

Last week I accepted a new student. The first session is always about the tech -- I tell them this in advance, that they'll have to set up a few things, but once we're set up, we'll be good to go. They all say the same thing -- it won't be a problem because they're so "online" that they get technology easily.

I never laugh in their faces, but it's always a close thing. Because they are expecting an app. They are not expecting to be shown how little they actually know about tech.

I must say up front: this story is not an outlier. This is *every* student during their first session with me. Every single one. I go through this with each of them because most of them learn more, and more solidly, via discussion and discovery rather than direct instruction.

Once she logged in, I asked her to click on the icon for screen-sharing. I described the icon, then started with "Okay, move your mouse to the bottom right corner of the screen." She did the thing that those of us who are old enough to remember the beginnings of widespread home computers remember - picked up the mouse and moved it and then put it down. I explained she had to pull the mouse along the surface, and then click on the icon. She found this cumbersome. I asked if she was on a laptop or desktop computer. She didn't know what I meant. I asked if the computer screen was connected to the keyboard as one piece of machinery that you can open and close, or if there was a monitor - like a TV - and the keyboard was connected to another machine either by cord or by Bluetooth. Once we figured it out was a laptop, I asked her if she could use the touchpad, because it's similar (though not equivalent) to a phone screen in terms of touching clicking and dragging.

Once we got her using the touchpad, we tried screen-sharing again. We got it working, to an extent, but she was having trouble with... lots of things. I asked if she could email me a download or a photo of her homework instead, and we could both have a copy, and talk through it rather than put it on the screen, and we'd worry about learning more tech another day. She said she tried, but her email blocked her from sending anything to me.

This is because the only email address she has is for school, and she never uses email for any other purpose. I asked if her mom or dad could email it to me. They weren't home.

(Re: school email that blocks any emails not whitelisted by the school: that's great for kids as are all parental controls for young ones, but 16-year-olds really should be getting used to using an email that belongs to them, not an institution.)

I asked if the homework was on a paper handout, or in a book, or on the computer. She said it was on the computer. Great! I asked her where it was saved. She didn't know. I asked her to search for the name of the file. She said she already did that and now it was on her screen. Then, she said to me: "You can just search for it yourself - it's Chapter 5, page 11."

This is because homework is on the school's website, in her math class's homework section, which is where she searched. For her, that was "searching the internet."

Her concepts of "on my computer" "on the internet" or "on my school's website" are all the same thing. If something is displayed on the monitor, it's "on the internet" and "on my phone/tablet/computer" and "on the school's website."

She doesn't understand "upload" or "download," because she does her homework on the school's website and hits a "submit" button when she's done. I asked her how she shares photos and stuff with friends; she said she posts to Snapchat or TikTok, or she AirDrops. (She said she sometimes uses Insta, though she said Insta is more "for old people"). So in her world, there's a button for "post" or "share," and that's how you put things on "the internet".

She doesn't know how it works. None of it. And she doesn't know how to use it, either.

Also, none of them can type. Not a one. They don't want to learn how, because "everything is on my phone."

And you know, maybe that's where we're headed. Maybe one day, everything will be on "my phone" and computers as we know them will be a thing of the past. But for the time being, they're not. Students need to learn how to use computers. They need to learn how to type. No one is telling them this, because people think teenagers are "digital natives." And to an extent, they are, but the definition of that has changed radically in the last 20-30 years. Today it means "everything is on my phone."

How to Use Your Last Paystub to File Taxes

Filing taxes can be a daunting task, but understanding how to use your last paystub can simplify the process. Whether you're an employee or a freelancer, your paystub contains crucial information needed to complete your tax return. In this blog, we'll walk you through the steps of using your last paystub to file taxes and highlight some useful tools like a paystub generator, 1099 MISC Form, and more.

Understanding Your Paystub

A paystub provides a detailed breakdown of your earnings and deductions. Key components include:

Gross Earnings: Total income before any deductions.

Net Earnings: Income after deductions.

Federal and State Taxes: Amounts withheld for tax purposes.

Social Security and Medicare: Deductions for social security and Medicare contributions.

Other Deductions: Any other deductions such as health insurance or retirement contributions.

Steps to File Taxes Using Your Last Paystub

1. Gather Your Paystub and Relevant Forms

Before you begin, ensure you have your last paystub of the year. You may also need other documents such as the 1099 MISC Form if you're a freelancer or independent contractor.

2. Review Your Paystub

Check that all information is correct, including your gross and net earnings, tax withholdings, and any other deductions. If you notice any discrepancies, contact your employer or use a paystub generator to create a corrected version.

3. Calculate Your Total Income

Use the gross earnings listed on your last paystub to calculate your total income for the year. If you have multiple jobs, add the gross earnings from all your paystubs.

4. Enter Information into Tax Forms

Transfer the information from your paystub to the appropriate tax forms. For employees, this is usually the W-2 form. Freelancers will use the 1099 MISC Form.

5. Deductions and Credits

Review any deductions or credits you may be eligible for, such as educational credits, retirement contributions, or health savings accounts. Ensure these are accurately reflected in your tax return.

6. File Your Taxes

You can file your taxes online or via mail. If you’re using a tax software, it will guide you through the process, ensuring all information from your paystub is correctly entered.

What You Should Know About the 1099-MISC Form in 2023

A tax form called a 1099-MISC is used to disclose other payments you made to contractors. You must send a 1099-MISC form to anyone you paid more than $600 in rent, settlements from legal disputes, or prize money to if they are not an employee.

All payments made to contractors used to be reported using the 1099-MISC. That would be the 1099-NEC form now, though.

When should I utilize a 1099-MISC form and what does it mean?

For tax purposes, you must disclose any other payments you make to a contractor on the 1099-MISC form. This covers items like: Rent

prize money                       

Lawful agreements

Insurance payments for crops

health and medical care are provided.

payment for the fishing boat

The complete list of 1099-MISC payments is available here. Most significantly, you should be aware that typical contractor income is no longer reported using the 1099-MISC form. You'll utilize the 1099-NEC form for this.

Now, if you're recruiting contractors who are American tax residents, all of this information is pertinent. However, if you hire someone from outside the United States...

What if you're using foreign contractors?

The requirements are slightly different if you're recruiting contractors from countries other than the United States: A 1099-MISC is not required of your contractors because they do not pay taxes in the US. But you'll need to ask your contractor to complete a Form W-8 BEN in its place.

Your contractor is informing the government that they are not U.S. citizens or residents and do not need a 1099 by completing this form.

Panther can help you save a ton of time if you work with contractors.

You undoubtedly spend too much time on the payroll, contracts, and tax paperwork for contractors you hire. In order to reduce your monthly time spent on contractor paperwork by 90%, we created Panther.

With Panther, you can legally employ your contractors in more than 150 countries, quickly onboard them, and instantly pay them all. Finally streamlined contractor payroll for the entire world.

Tax Prep Checklist 2024: What Do You Need to File Taxes?

— Aly A. Yale | Reviewed By Robert Thorpe | February 06, 2024 | Newsweek

Tax season is quickly approaching, and whether you file your returns yourself or enlist a professional for help, having the proper documents on hand will be necessary. These documents ensure a quick and accurate filing, which can lead to a faster tax refund for some. Want to make sure your tax filing goes off without a hitch? Use this tax prep checklist to guide the way.

Vault’s Viewpoint

There are five categories of documents you’ll need as you file your tax returns: personal information, income, deductions, credits and payments.

You’ll need information for you, your spouse (if filing your returns together) and your dependents.

Banks, lenders and your employer send many documents to you automatically, but there are some you may need to pull yourself.

Personal Information

The first set of documents you’ll need detail personal information for you, your spouse (if married and filing your returns together) and your children or other dependents.

Social Security Cards For You, Your Spouse and Your Dependents

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) needs a way to identify you as a unique taxpayer, and for most people, this requires a Social Security number (SSN). You’ll also need your spouse’s SSN if filing your returns jointly, the SSNs for any dependents you have and the SSN of the paying party if you receive alimony or child support payments.

If you file your returns as a business owner, are a nonresident or resident alien or a paid tax preparer, you’ll likely use a unique tax identification number instead. You can apply for these directly through the IRS.

Bank Account Numbers

You’ll need to put in your bank account’s routing and account numbers when filing your return. This will allow the IRS to directly deposit your refund once it’s been processed. You can find these numbers in several places, such as on your bank statements, online after logging into your account at your bank or at the bottom of a check linked to your account (The first number listed is your bank’s routing number; the second is your account number.)

A Copy of Your Last Tax Return

This isn’t required, but it can be helpful to have past returns on hand as you file your new one. It can be a quick way to look up information, and it may also remind you of what deductions and credits you’re eligible for. You may also be able to use the return to auto-populate your tax return information if you’re using online tax software.

Form 8332 if You Share Custody of a Child

If you share custody of a child and are planning to claim them as a dependent on your taxes, you’ll need Form 8332, as it proves the other custodial parent has released their right to claim the child as a dependent.

Income

You’ll need to show your sources of income on your tax returns. This can include full- or part-time employment, freelance work, unemployment earnings or alimony payments. Many of these documents will be mailed to you or delivered electronically by the government, your employer or clients, or your bank by the end of January. Some documents, though, you may need to produce yourself.

W-2s

A W-2—or Wage and Tax Statement—is a form you’ll get from your employer annually. It details how much income you earned, the taxes they withheld from your paychecks, details about your benefits and more.

Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC

If you’re self-employed or earned income from side gigs, contracting work, freelancing or other jobs that don’t come with a W-2, you should get a 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC form that details how much you earned from each client every year. Clients don’t have to report payments under $600 to the IRS, though. So if you only earned a small amount from one, you may have to rely on bank statements to report these earnings accurately.

Form 1099-R or SSA-1099

If you received Social Security benefits or distributions from pensions or retirement accounts, you should get a 1099-R or SSA-1099, also called a benefit statement, detailing how much you earned in any given year. You can also pull your SSA-1099 at SSA.gov.

Proof of Alimony or Child Support Received

If you received alimony or child support payments from a former spouse or other party during the year, you will need to report these payments as income on your tax return. You’ll need the total amount you received, as well as the payer’s SSN or tax ID number.

Profit and Loss Statements

Business owners need a profit and loss statement, which details business expenses and revenue across the year. You can typically get this from your accountant or bookkeeper, or you can create one yourself by gathering details about your operating costs, overhead expenses, earnings and profits.

1099-G

If you received unemployment income in the tax year you’re filing for, you should get a 1099-G form detailing how much you were paid. You also may get a 1099-G if you receive any state or local income tax refunds.

1099-INT, 1099-DIV or 1099-B

Taxpayers who receive interest payments on savings, investment, checking or other types of financial accounts will receive a 1099-INT. This form reports the full amount of interest earned across the year. This is considered taxable income on your returns.

If you earned money from dividends or distributions from any investments, you will also get a 1099-DIV. And if you sold any capital assets, like stocks, bonds or other securities, you’ll receive a 1099-B. This will detail your gains and losses on those assets, which could result in additional tax liabilities.

1099-S

If you sold real estate in the last year, you may receive a 1099-S, which details the closing date and the proceeds of the sale.

1099-Q

Taxpayers who receive money from a 529 education plan or Coverdell education savings account (ESA) will need a 1099-Q. This form shows your total distributions, their base costs and the earnings you received on your initial investment.

1099-SA

If you received distributions from a Health Savings Account, Medicare Medical Savings Account or Archer Medical Savings Account at any point in the year, you’ll get a 1099-SA form. You will need to report these distributions on your return, though they’re only taxable if you fail to use the funds on qualified medical expenses or you exceed the annual HSA contribution limit.

Records of Cryptocurrency Transactions

If you bought or sold cryptocurrency at any point in the year, you’ll need records of these transactions, as you’ll need to report them on your annual returns. They may also result in capital gains taxes.

Proof of Any Other Income

There are many other forms of income you may have received throughout the year, and you’ll need to report all of it. This can include income earned from royalties, prizes, awards and gambling earnings.

Deductions

Deductions allow you to reduce your taxable income and therefore your total tax liability. To take advantage of these, though, you’ll need documentation to prove that you incurred the eligible expense, as well as how much it cost you.

Here are some of the documents you may need to maximize your tax deductions.

Health Insurance Costs

If you’re self-employed and must cover the costs of health insurance without the help of an employer, you can typically deduct the entirety of your premiums each year. If you have a marketplace plan, you’ll receive a Form 1095-A that will detail how much you spent on premiums. If you have a private plan, you’ll need to see your plan documents for the total premium cost.

Business Expenses

If you’re self-employed, own a business or work from home, you may be able to write off certain business and home office expenses. You’ll need receipts for any purchased items and a record of the mileage you’ve driven for your business.

If you have a home office, you should also have copies of any bills for utilities, electricity, rent or mortgage and other costs associated with the overall property. While you can’t deduct all of these, you may be able to write off a portion of them, depending on how much of your overall property your home office takes up.

A quick note for educators: You can also write off the costs of classroom expenses and supplies. You’ll need receipts for these purchases and are limited to up to $300 in deductions.

Form 5498

Contributions to many types of retirement accounts are tax-deductible. Your account administrator should send you a Form 5498 detailing your total contributions, as well as any rollovers from the previous year. Keep in mind there are limits to how much of your contributions you can deduct depending on the type of account.

Charitable Donations

Many charitable donations qualify as a write-off. For example, if you donate clothing or furniture to a local shelter, you can often deduct the total value of those items from your taxable income. Just make sure you donate to a qualifying tax-exempt organization and get an itemized receipt for each donation.

Medical and Dental Expenses

If you incur a significant amount of medical or dental expenses across the year and exceed 7.5 percent of your total adjusted gross income, you may qualify for a write-off. To calculate how much you’ve spent in a year, contact your doctors, dentists and any medical professionals you’ve seen and ask for an account statement. You can also check with your insurance company to see what your out-of-pocket spending was for the year.

Form 1098-E

If you, your spouse or a dependent has a student loan and you paid interest on it, you can deduct that total amount from your taxable income up to $2,500 annually. You should get a 1098-E in the mail from your student loan servicer, which will detail how much interest you paid for the year.

Form 1098

In the event you bought a house or refinanced in the last year, you likely paid mortgage loan interest and qualify for a deduction. Your mortgage lender should send you a Form 1098 that breaks down how much you paid in interest, mortgage insurance and mortgage points.

State and Local Tax Records

Taxpayers can deduct up to $10,000 in state and local taxes (SALT) on their annual returns. These include things like property taxes, sales taxes and state income taxes. Your state tax returns can help here, as can your annual property tax bill.

Credits

Tax credits are similar to deductions, but instead of reducing your taxable income, they’re a dollar-for-dollar reduction on your actual tax bill. See below for the documents you’ll need to take advantage of various tax credits.

Form 1095-A

If you have a marketplace health insurance plan, you may be eligible for a tax credit depending on your income level. You can choose to use this toward your monthly premiums or your total annual tax bill. Either way, you’ll get a 1095-A Health Insurance Marketplace Statement at the end of each year. This will detail your policy data, covered individuals and total premiums, which you can then use to file your returns.

Childcare Provider Details

If you pay for childcare for dependents, you could qualify for a tax credit of up to $3,000. You’ll need to provide your childcare provider’s name, address and SSN or tax identification number. If you don’t have this information, you can request it using a Form W-10.

Adoption Costs

Adopting a child often comes with a tax credit, equal to the amount of the total qualified adoption expenses up to a certain limit. This can include legal fees, adoption agency fees, court costs and other expenses. So you’ll want receipts for any of these services on hand as you file your returns.

Form 1098-T

If you, your spouse or your child is enrolled in a higher education program, you may be eligible for the American Opportunity Credit based on your tuition. You’ll get a 1098-T detailing the total tuition you paid each year and can write off the first $2,500 of it.

Payments

Some taxpayers make payments to the IRS at non-tax season times. If this happens, you’ll need this payment data on hand as you file your returns, as it could impact what you owe and what refund you’re due.

Previous Refunds

You have the option of having your tax refund sent directly to you or having it applied to a future tax bill. If you opted for the second, you’ll want the amount of that applied refund with you as you file your returns. This will reduce the total amount of taxes you owe for the year.

Proof of Estimated Tax Payments

Self-employed professionals, sole proprietors and other types of taxpayers are required to make estimated tax payments quarterly throughout the year. If you’re one of them, you’ll want the payment confirmations from those payments, as well as their total amount. These will help determine if you owe additional taxes or are due a refund.

Guide on The Best Way to Pay Your Contractors

Working with contractors can be an excellent way to obtain professional services without bringing on a new employee. Many business owners work with contractors when they need temporary services performed or when a miscellaneous job comes along for which they don’t have an expert on staff.

Paying contractors is fairly straightforward, but there are some things you’ll want to be aware of to ensure a smooth experience. Below are some considerations to help guide you through the process of paying contractors:

Determine the Rate Up Front

Before you can issue contractor payouts, you need a written agreement in place that lays out the rate you’re expected to pay. Some agreements set an hourly rate while others work on a project rate. Having this information in writing is crucial so that both you and any contractors you work with are on the same page.

You also need to think about any fees associated with contractor payouts. Some payment platforms charge a fee to send or receive payments online, so you will want to determine whether you or the contractor will be responsible for these fees and then adjust payment amounts accordingly.

Keep Records

Whether you pay in cash or with a card or check, keep records of all payments made. If possible, get a receipt from each contractor so that you have documentation to rely on if a payment is questioned in the future. Having proof of payment is also beneficial when working on your company’s financials at the end of the year for tax filing and other matters.

Don’t Forget Taxes

Speaking of taxes, if you work with contractors in the United States, you typically do not need to withhold taxes from payments; however, you’re encouraged to speak with a tax planning expert to learn more. In most cases, you will still need to issue each contractor a 1099-MISC form that lists all the payments you’ve made to the contractor during the tax year. In 2023, you need to issue this form if you’ve paid more than $600 in that tax year, and this can affect how you file and pay your own taxes as well.
