What Form 1099-MISC is for
Form 1099-MISC reports certain miscellaneous payments made during the year. The IRS says the threshold for rents, prizes and awards, other income, and several other covered payments rose from $600 for payments before 2026 to $2,000 for payments made in 2026. Royalties and broker payments in lieu of dividends or tax-exempt interest retain a $10 threshold. Use the December 2026 form to report calendar-year 2026 payments in early 2027; check the IRS instructions for the specific box and any exception.
