    What is minimum age to receive a 1099
    I am US business and want to hire kids to market my product

    Is there a minimum age required? I give out 1099's as it's a commission job

    Thanks

    Thanks lisa, are you an accountant?

    Also when you say consent, how do I verify that? Do I need a signature from the parent

    I doubt seriously there's any age requirement about a 1099. It's about whether you can employ them or not and what they're allowed to do, not whether you can send a piece of paper to them. If they're allowed to do the work, you're allowed to send the piece of paper.

    What is the minimus age for filing a MISC 1099. We hold an annual event and give away awards.

    Thank you
