How to file a Form-1099 to tax a website manager

You should tax-a-website-manager using an IRS Form-1099 when he or she was paid $600 or more for their services during a single calendar year, and he or she is not a full-time employee. A website manager can also be referred to as a webmaster, web developer, site author, web coordinator or web publisher. Whether contributing content, technology or a combination of services, the IRS doesn’t care and you may be held responsible for not issuing a Form-1099 for your website manager.

When to issue your website manager the Form-1099

Any worker who starts work on a project of yours – whether technology-related or not – should be asked to complete the IRS Form W-9 on the first day of work. This is the form you will use to submit the IRS Form-1099. On the W-9 the name of the contractor, business and the tax identification information (or Social Security #) will be identified along with address and signature of the contractor. Do not wait until after the contract finishes a job to issue the W-9.

Place website manager income in Box 7 within the Form 1099-MISC.

With the completed IRS Form W-9, you are now ready to use the information provided by the website manager to issue the IRS Form 1099 and send a copy of that IRS Form 1099-MISC to the website manager. A copy must be sent, according to the IRS, by January 31st of the following year, and you must file a copy with the IRS by February 28th of the following year. The IRS deadline for electronic filing of a Form 1099 for a website manager is March 31 of the following year.

There are many ways to check your work when working with W-9 forms, and having a CPA or other tax expert look over your paperwork filed for the Website Manager is always a smart thing to do. Also, be sure to retain copies of any tax documentation submitted to or received from your contractors.

    JC Penny CEO bad boss departure
    “When assholes succeed,” Bob Sutton argues, “they usually do so despite their negative traits not because of them.” Sutton’s Good Boss, Bad Boss begs the question whether it’s worth any company’s bottom line to tolerate jerks. Steve Jobs was a well known bully tolerated for his genius and bottom line results returned for Apple, but let’s not forget Jobs was fired from Apple for being “famously combative”. The company lost millions because of him before making billions despite his antics. After his own combative 17 months portraying himself as an all-knowing savior of the department store, JC Penny CEO Ron Johnson was fired on April 9th. Business Insider saw this coming long before the board of directors did, calling him the wrong man for the wrong job back in October 2012: Make no mistake: Ron Johnson is in the midst of the retail disaster of the decade. His arrogance will cost thousands of people their jobs while destroying “America’s Favorite  more

    Silicon Alley a Hostile Work Environment?
    New York sent a message to Internet companies when it demanded access to personal information of 225,000 Airbnb user accounts, including bank account numbers and other personal data. The subpoena requires AirBnB to provide immediate access, setting a precedent for ongoing spying to police the website for users who illegally sublet their apartments. According to The Wall Street Journal‘s Allysia Finley, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has severed political ties with Netflix, Facebook, Amazon and Uber by “declaring war on the Internet community.” The legal battle continues as the hostile work environment that is New York City becomes evident. AirBnB faces a daunting battle in the short term, where antiquated laws reflect the reality of their struggle against New York City’s powerful hotel lobby. A New York City man was fined $2,400 for renting his room out by using the website, but the fine was later reversed on a technicality. Many webmasters say the precedent demanding ongoing access to  more
