Who needs a W-2G and/or 1099?

1. Individuals who receive certain types of income: If you earned specific types of income during the year, such as gambling winnings exceeding a certain threshold (which require a W-2G) or self-employment earnings or investment income over certain amounts (which require a 1099), you will need to report it using these forms.
2. Payers of income: If you operate a business or organization and make payments to individuals or entities for services rendered or other income-generating activities, you are generally required to issue a 1099 to the recipients. This includes freelancers, independent contractors, and others who are not your employees.
3. Employers: Employers need to provide a W-2 form to their employees annually, summarizing their compensation and taxes withheld. However, the W-2G is specifically for gambling winnings and not applicable to regular employees' salaries.

Note: It is essential to consult with a tax professional or refer to IRS guidelines for specific instructions and requirements based on your individual circumstances.
