When the announcement was first made that Neve Campbell's character, Leann Harvey, on House of Cards would be a for-real thing, I was pretty pumped. A badass survivor from Scream now shacking up with Frank and Claire Underwood full-time? It sounded all too good to be true. And yet, here we are.
One who checks all the contractor boxes in the employee versus independent contractor test. One who works for others while theyâre working for you. And if you make that contractor sign a non-compete agreement, then guess what, they now only work for youâlike an employee.
If you don&#039;t have the contractor&#039;s Employer Identification Number, or EIN, filing becomes problematic. Step 1. Write letters to the independent contractors stating that you need to file a 1099-MISC, and need appropriate taxpayer identification numbers.Include a copy of an IRS Form W-9 for the contractors to fill out to obtain a number. Send this letter via certified mail to record that the contractor received it.end an email or second certified letter to the contractor if they do not respond within a week. Explain in this correspondence once again that you need this information and will be filing the 1099-MISC without the EIN which may lead to an audit of the contractor.
