1099 reporting for a candidate travel reimbursement?
February 7, 2024
Q. If we reimbursed a potential job candidate for travel to interview, is that 1099-NEC qualified?
A.
(Answered by IOFM's third-party tax experts)
If the amount paid is substantiated (receipts for the travel expenses; or some or all amounts were the applicable federal per diem amounts) then the payments is a non-reportable reimbursement. If any portion isn't a substantiated amount then it is reportable on Form 1099-MISC, box 3 "Other income".
