I am an independent contractor, operating as an LLC (disregarded entity), and have requested a client to provide me with a 1099-Misc. they replied that Corporations do not get a 1099. I've explained that as an LLC, I've received nonemployee remuneration in the form of fees, and I am liable for SE tax, but they do not seem to understand.

Where can I copy a passgae to quote them, which states that LLC's can receive a 1099 for professional services rendered as an individual trading under the business LLC name.

Thanks.

Hi, uk100!

Since your question really has more to do with taxes than small business, I've moved it over to this forum topic area so that it will be more likely to be noticed and addressed by those who are best able to do that to your satisfaction.

Thanks!

If you know what you got paid by this client (and if you do NOT know, shame on YOU for keeping shoddy records), you can report that income on your Schedule C without benefit of the Form 1099.

BOTTOM LINE: You do not NEED the Form 1099 to report your income. Just report it.
