As discussed in my post of November 24<\/a>, businesses and nonprofit organizations face a significant increase in the requirements to issue 1099 forms <\/a>beginning with payments made after December 31, 2011. However, a lot could change between now and then. Several legislators introduced bills during the previous session of Congress that would have dramatically reduced the new reporting requirements or even repealed them altogether. Although none of them passed, similar bills are being introduced again in the new session.<\/p>\n

Representative Dan Lungren (R. California) originally introduced a repeal measure last April, just one month after the original legislation was passed, but was unable to obtain the signatures necessary for a vote on the matter. Rep. Lungren re-introduced his bill to repeal the 1099 tax provision earlier this week and plans to continue fighting against the new tax provisions. The bill, referred to as “The Small Business Paperwork Mandate Elimination Act,” has 180 co-sponsors and was one of the first bills to be introduced during the 112th Congressional Session.<\/p>\n

Other members of Congress have sought to lighten the impact of the reporting changes without repealing them altogether. Senator Mary Landrieu (D. Louisiana) introduced a bill last September that would increase the reporting threshold from $600 to $5,000. Senator Landrieu has yet to re-introduce the bill, but it is likely that similar efforts will begin to surface in the new Congress.<\/p>\n

Many organizations representing small business owners have also shown great concern about these changes, which increases the possibility of amendments or a total repeal before next year. Continue checking back here for updates on the 1099 reporting requirements and how they will affect your small business<\/a> or non-profit organization.
