1099 Help and Information

Justice Management Division...Serving Justice - Securing Results

Why are you receiving a Form 1099-MISC from the Department of Justice?

    We are required to issue a Form 1099-MISC to each person to whom we have paid at least $600 in rents, services (including parts and materials used to perform the service), prizes, awards, and other income payments. As an executive agency, the Department of Justice is also required to issue Form 1099-MISC for payments made to corporations for services.

What has changed from last year?

    For 2005 Form 1099-MISC, payments made by the Department of Justice Offices, Boards, and Divisions have been combined with payments made by the Bureau of Prisons. The advantage to this is you will receive a combined Form 1099-MISC rather than multiple Form 1099-MISC. If you normally receive a Form 1099-MISC with a payer's name identified as a Bureau of Prisons location and address, the payer name will now be the Department of Justice, 600 E St,. N.W., Washington, DC.

    Another change is that we have included the payments made to you using the Department of Justice purchase card. Payments reportable on your Form 1099-MISC are determined by the Merchant Category Code (MCC) assigned to you as allowed by Internal Revenue Procedure 2004-43.

Help Reading Documents

The Finance Staff provides its products in a variety of electronic formats to provide access to users with varying electronic capabilities. Some of these formats require interpreting applications you need to install on your computer as plug-ins to web browsers or stand-alone only applications.

Acrobat documents:
Using the portable document format (.pdf), Acrobat documents are full electronic renderings of published documents including the text, page layout and graphics that can be viewed and printed on any platform. A free reader appropriate for your computer is needed to view an Acrobat document. This reader can be used as a stand-alone or as a plug-in within a web browser to view documents as they are downloaded from the Internet. Instructions on using this software as a plug-in should be available with your web browser. 

Spreadsheets:
Many tables from our reports and some additional data are available in the .wk1 and .xls format, readable by most spreadsheet software. Applications that will read a wk1 or xls file can be used as a helper application with many browsers. Instructions on using this software as a plug-in should be available with your web browser.

PowerPoint presentations:
Slide shows given at conferences and meetings are provided in PowerPoint format. If you do not have PowerPoint on your computer, you can download the free viewer from Microsoft.
