 When is Form 1099-MISC Needed?
Businesses will need to fill outa Form 1099-MISC for persons, vendors, subcontractors, independent contractors, and others in the following circumstances:

  • cash payments to fishermen
  • crop insurance proceeds,
  • medical and health care payments,
  • prizes and awards,
  • proceeds paid to attorneys,
  • rents,
  • services (including parts and materials), and
  • other types of payments not covered by another information reporting document.
