How do I get the nonemployee compensation to flow as wages?
If you choose to report nonemployee compensation as wages on the 1040 the 8919 is required. For each firm listed on Form 8919, or each Form 1099-NEC with an entry in box 7 that is reported on Form 8919, a reason code must be entered. This code identifies the reason for filing Form 8919. The valid codes are:
- A - The person has filed Form SS-8 and received a determination letter stating that I am an employee of this firm. The date of the letter must be entered as the 'determination' date.
- C - The person has received other correspondence from the IRS that states that the person is an employee of the firm or payer of the Form 1099-NEC. The date of the letter must be entered as the 'determination' date.
- G - The person has filed a Form SS-8 with the IRS and has not received a reply.
- H - The person received a Form W-2 and a Form 1099-NEC from this firm this year. The amount on Form 1099-MISC should have been included as wages on Form W-2. (Do not file Form SS-8 if you select code H.)
