Naveen Mohan from New York Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 I have an IT client who is using sub contract labor in India. Since Indian vendor does not have a tax ID number or a social security number, how do you comply with 1099 reporting requirement in this case? thanks for your help.

Lion EA Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Did the vendor perform any services in the US? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easytax Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Lion, Just curious --- services IN US --- understood BUT would FOR US clients make a difference . I am thinking call centers (as an example) where they may actually do the service outside the US but be doing FOR a US customer, etc.. Thanks in advance.

Lion EA Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Look up the instructions for Forms 1099-MISC. I don't think you have to provide them to anyone who never set foot in the US. But, I don't have that situation. Isn't there a form, Form w-9BEN or something, that the foreign individual certifies that he has no US presence?
