Manual 1099 Process
This process applies to individuals who are paid $600 or more outside of BEN Financials or Greenphire ClinCards, which each have their own 1099 generation processes. This includes payments via petty cash, gift cards, etc.
Employees must collect W-9s for payees who will meet the $600 payment threshold and store these documents until the end of the calendar year. It is best practice to keep a running spreadsheet throughout the year of all payments. Accounts Payable provides a template that you can use. The completed spreadsheet and all relevant W-9s are due by January 8, 2021. Please send via SecureShare to Renee Nowaczyk at reneenow@upenn.edu.
