The Knowledge Congress Has Scheduled a Live Webcast on The New and Existing World of 1099-MISC and Related Issues Explored

New York, NY, October 23, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The Knowledge Group/The Knowledge Congress Live Webcast Series, the leading producer of regulatory focused webcasts, announced today that it has scheduled a live webcast entitled: “The New and Existing World of 1099-MISC and Related Issues Explored”. This two-hour event is scheduled on December 16, 2010 at 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM ET.

Event synopsis:

A relatively obscure provision in the recently passed healthcare legislation is set to create big administrative headaches for companies. Starting in 2012, companies will have to report all specie or merchandise payments greater than $600 on form 1099 to the IRS. This means getting the TIN from and identifying every vendor you do business with. As the rule stands, if you take clients out for dinner, you’re going to have to 1099 the restaurant. Critics contend that any additional tax revenue collected will be offset by the administrative burdens of compliance.

One thing is certain: changes to the way you report your purchases are coming and you must understand the impact of this new regulation to your firm. The Knowledge Group has assembled a panel of key thought leaders and experts to help you make sense of the new 1099 reporting requirements.

Advanced registration is advised as space is limited. Significant discounts apply to early registrants.

Jonathan E. Strouse, Partner, Chair, Tax Controversy and Tax Litigation Team, Holland & Knight LLP

Steve Friedman, Director, KPMG LLP

William F. Becker, Jr., CPA, MBA, Tax Partner, Cherry, Bekaert & Holland, L.L.P
