Catherine Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 I have a sole proprietor who uses an EIN (no employees). So the 1099's she gets all have the EIN instead of her SSN. The Schedule C also shows her EIN. However, the default for 1099's is to use the SSN. In order to show the EIN, I have to override. Is this going to cause this client to not be able to e-file? Thx, Catherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcjenkins Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 You don't need to override, just include the 1099s as if they had her SSN, and the IRS will be just fine. When they use their matching program, it will match 1099s with BOTH her SSN and her EIN to her personal return. As long as the total matchs she is just fine.

JerryH Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 As I recall 1099's do not get included in an efile unless they have withholding on them. I usually just list them on the sch c income sheet for future reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelmars Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 1099's aren't matched unless the total you report is less than the 1099's. after all everyone in business gets payments from peoplewho don't issue them 1099's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
