| "They sent me this form with just the Payers name, the Payers federal ID number, my name not correctly written , and an amount in Nonemployee compensation.so would i have to file this form?"---> No, I don't think so;
you need to back to the company that issued you that 1099-misc and take with you everything you have to prove your figure. Then they have to have everything that they have to prove their figure. If you can prove your figure, then you’ll get a corrected 1099-misc. If they prove their 1099-misc figure, then you will have to accept that amount or you need to contact the IRS by calling the IRS at 1-800-829-1040( to file your complaint to the IRS) and get ahold of the division that handles inaccurate 1099 reporting; as you can see,the company is required their filing with the IRS by end of February of each year by sending 1099 and 1096 or etc. If they fail, there is usually a penalty imposed on the company. That's between IRS and the company. As for you for getting wrong information, you will need to contact the company, as said above, to correct it so they will amend their return with the IRS. Assuming the company has done its due diligence. If the company fails to reissue you a 1099-misc and amend with IRS then you can contact the IRS.
