New York, NY, August 13, 2011 --(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: 1099- MISC Issues for 2011: What You Need to Know. This two-hour event is scheduled on Tuesday, October 25, 2011 from 12:00pm - 2:00pm (ET).

Event Synopsis:

2010-2011 proved to be a tumultuous year for taxpayers especially in the area of 1099 reporting requirements. Although the passing of the Comprehensive 1099 Taxpayer Protection and Replacement of Exchange Subsidy Overpayments Act of 2011 nullified some of the thorniest issues, companies, small businesses, and tax payers need to understand the new 1099 requirements left over to stay ahead of the penalty curve. The Knowledge Group is assembling a panel of distinguished professionals and key regulators to help businesses and tax payers understand the most recent developments in 1099 reporting requirements. The speakers will share their expert opinions in a two-hour live webcast. They will discuss:

• Update on all things 1099 for 2011 and beyond
• Impact of the repealed 1099-MISC reporting requirements expansion on Small Businesses and Land Lords
• Small Business Paperwork Mandate Elimination Act of 2011
• Comprehensive 1099 Taxpayer Protection and Replacement of Exchange Subsidy Overpayments Act of 2011
• And other up to the minute regulatory updates
