IRS Reverses Course–Again
The IRS announced that it will start Form 1099-K matching in late 2013.
In February of 2012, the IRS provided a reprieve from merchant card reporting on business returns for 2011 Schedule C and Forms 1065, 1120S and 1120; however, the IRS plans to change its approach after 2012 returns are filed. The IRS has indicated that it plans to pilot a business-matching program that can address a large amount of small business noncompliance.
