Companies are required to send 1099 forms to their users meeting certain criteria.
For example:
- Uber: https://www.uber.com/us/en/drive/tax-information/tax-documents/
- Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.ca/help/article/414/should-i-expect-to-receive-a-tax-form-from-airbnb
- Etsy: https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000336447-Will-I-Receive-a-1099-K-Tax-Form-From-Etsy-?segment=selling
- Square: https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/5048-1099-k-overview
What do companies use to generate and mail 1099s? Do they mail themselves, or do they contract out to tax compliance agencies? What are some modern tax compliance agencies offering this service?
