Incorrect 1099-MISC Hi All,
So here is my situation. I did some contract work in 2008 and I just received a 1099 from her. She is reporting my income at 25% higher than what it is. I have asked repeatedly for a corrected form or explanation for the discrepancy. All I get from her is "It was for monies spent on you" and "I have receipts for approximately what the difference is" but she will not provide me with details. I believe I am correct in believing that the 1099-MISC is for income received, not "monies spent on you"...which for the record, I have no idea what she is talking about other than maybe electricity bills for powering the computer I used. I am growing incredibly frustrated about it and am planning on calling the IRS tomorrow but since it is Sunday I can't do anything.
Anyone who could help out, or at least confirm that what I believe is correct would leave me extremely grateful. Thank you sooooo much!
P.S. if any of this seems disjointed it is because it has been a week-long battle and I am more than a bit frazzled!
