XX/XX/scrub>XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : Request for 1099-C for Account Number : XXXX Dear Nordstrom/TD Bank, I am writing to formally request a copy of IRS Form 1099-C ( Cancellation of Debt ) related to the charged-off account referenced above. According to IRS regulations ( Internal Revenue Code Section 6050P ), any creditor that discharges or cancels a debt of {$600.00} or more is required to issue a Form 1099-C to the debtor and to the IRS, as this canceled debt may be considered taxable income.

As this account has been charged off and reported as such on my credit report, I am requesting confirmation as to whether the debt has been canceled and a Form 1099-C has been issued. If this is the case, please provide me with a copy of the 1099-C that was filed with the IRS.

If a 1099-C has not been issued but the debt has indeed been canceled or written off, I ask that you comply with IRS guidelines by issuing the necessary tax form and providing it to me promptly. Should the debt remain collectible, please provide a detailed explanation of the current status of the debt and any actions taken regarding this account. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to receiving your response and the requested documentation within 30 days of receipt of this letter. 

Thank you for your cooperation.

Complaint narrative:
We were charged {$39.00} on XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, XXXX months consecutively by XXXX, for charges we did not authorize. We tried to tell XXXX, and it fell on deaf ears. We submitted a dispute to Wells Fargo. They temporarily credited our account. However, even with us telling the WF rep that we did not have any information other than what we gave her at the time, we received a request for more. After calling and telling them we did not have more, we later got a notice stating because we did not provide more, they were again debiting our account with the charges. First, we did not authorize these electronic charges. Second, upon telling our bank that we did not authorize the charges, it was incumbent upon them, under The Electronic Fund Transfer Act, to prove that this was a valid charge, not upon the one upon which the fraud was perpetrated on. We were defrauded, we were charged the wrong charge. I have XXXX, my wife has XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and we do not have the funds, mindset, nor the energy to deal with all this. You have my permission to speak with my wife just as if you were speaking with me.
