Karen Lee Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Client receives a notice from IRS stating it has on file two 1099-MISC from the same organization, with the same $ amount except one is for box 3 and one is in box 5. Client reported box 3 which is correct but the box 5 (fishing proceeds???)is so totally unrelated to anything the client does and is just wrong. Now to make it really interesting...I prepared the 1099-MISC for the organization and I have no idea how this happened from this end and no idea how to fix it because there is nothing to fix. I have no 1099-MISC or 1096 with fishing proceeds, there is a duplication somewhere and I can't find it. How do I fix this for both the client and the organization. Thanks Karen Quote
