I had a part-time summer job and earned $1,000. I was not an employee and they did not withhold any taxes. I thought I would be receiving something from the company that paid me. I haven’t received anything yet. What should I include on my tax return?

The IRS requires that taxpayers include every dollar earned on their returns, even if a 1099 is not received. The company you worked for is required to issue a Form 1099 to each non-employee that earned over $600 in a given year. They are supposed to mail these by Jan. 31 of each year. The company also sends a copy to the IRS. Then, the IRS matches 1099 information they receive to your tax return.
