| Hey,
Client has received a 1099 for reimbursement for mileage for commuting from her home to her work. No home in office or other item. Clearly income. I have handled this by including it as reimbursed monies on 2106 and it flows into line 7. client wants to know if she can force her employer to issue this in her W-2. She doesn't want a 1099, she doesn't mind making waves at work. she is a biologist if that helps. | |

| There are waves and then there are waves. Instead of 2106, stick it on a 8919 w/ a statement. If this is a company wide practice file a 3949A. Do the same with the state and local payroll tax agency.
Better just to ask payroll about it. "My accountant said that these should be on the w-2, and I just wanted to be sure..." type of approach. Send her with a copy of Pub 15B too. | |

| Is she a marine biologist? That would explain why she doesn't mind the waves. | |

| I will do that. She's not a marine biologist but is married to an environmental scientist. I also have a rocket scientist as a client.
I definitely have some characters in my client list. | |
