I own a business that places craft labor on construction jobs and pays the employees per diem. How is per diem handled for tax purposes? Is it reported on a W2 or 1099 or is it reported at all?


ANSWER


The BIDaWIZ Team's Answer:

The individuals are sub-contractors. Thus, if the amounts exceed $600, the

amount is reported on a Form 1099-Misc. Note that if any of the "subs" are incorporated,

no 1099 is required.
