Agencies are also responsibile for determining which payment information is required to be reported.
To help agencies fulfill these obligations, the Comptroller's office and the IRS are engaged in a joint effort to increase electronic filing of Forms 1099. The Comptroller's office will provide agencies with 1099-related data upon request. The joint effort has increased the number of agencies that file Forms 1099 and reduced the number of filing errors. However, your continued diligence is still needed for your agency to be in compliance when filing Form 1099 information. To assist your agency with complying with this requirement for calendar year 1998, USAS will capture 1099-related data and generate DAFR7940 reports and Forms 1099 for each agency upon request.
