What To Do If A Salon Owner Refuses To Give You Their Tax ID Number Needed To Prepare Their 1099.
Although it is required by law that ALL independent contractors and business
owners who pay a business $600 or more should provide the business with a 1099-
NEC (formally 1099-MISC prior to 2020), it is well known that most beauty industry
professionals do not abide by this law.
So before you claim that you've never heard of this requirement, therefore, it must not be true, let me say that not having heard of it doesn't mean it isn't a legal requirement; it is, and if the IRS ever catches up with you, you will be severely fined.
