"Vow of poverty" refers to whether the chaplain is subject to social security tax as a self-employed person. It has no connection with what your chapter is...

David: No matter how you cook it a duck is still a duck. Any time you pay ANYONE over $600 in a year for services you MUST issue a 1099 and, in order to do so,...
... ********************************** Comments: 1) most chapters consider their Director a private contractor, since if he were an employee, they would have...
Hi David, Our situation is quite similar to yours, and, indeed, probably similar to many smaller chapters in the Society. As usual, Chas has provided a very...
Charles and Greg are correct. The only thing I would add for clarity is that "qualified" reimbursed expenses do not go on the 1099. That is, any expense ...
I agree with Charles and Johnny. The mileage is not 1099-able. The dues probably are, but that's not gonna break $600, so you're good there. Example: I...
Gentlemen: Our chapter is putting on a Christmas show as a joint venture with a local Sweet Adelines chapter. Since we've never done this before, I'm...

We are doing the same idea but with a neighboring chapter. Each chapter will sell their own advertising and tickets and keep the proceeds and account on their...
Hi Ray, We've held joint shows and SV's with the gals as well, and they're always fun. Based on that experience, you've got two primary options: (1) (At the...
Wes I beg to differ with your analysis. The 1099 applies only to funds paid for services rendered. Expenses that are related to the services rendered and...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can reimburse _anybody_ (not just an employee) for mileage - they're basically volunteering for a chartible ...

Everyone, I apologize to the two subscribers who posted their first messages around Aug 9th on the subject of Director's Compensation and/or Reimbursement....
Richard: Please see page 5 & 6 of the 1099 Misc instructions pertaining to Box 7: Non employee compensation. I have uploaded a copy to the file section. It...
You are only allowed to deduct mileage to meetings if you are a member of the board of directors and, as part of your duties as an officer of the chapter, are...
Everyone may be right. If I pay the directors dues, I put them on the 1099. If the director pays them, gives me his invoice and I reimburse his expense, I...
I believe that it is no longer a Society requirement that the Director be a member of the Chapter or even of the Society. Witness the fact that many choruses...
Hi, Y'all! The 1099-Misc is really to report fees for services, not including business expenses. The 1099-Misc only includes the amounts paid to the reported...
Phew! Frank bails me out again, because that's how I have it set up based on our agreement with our director. Thanks, Frank! Regards, Greg Grote Boonslick...
I have been doing some more thinking about this issue. It occurred to me that if I include the Director's dues as part of his compensation and report it on...
MessageWhy is that unacceptable? This is part of the Director's compensation which is taxable. If you charge it to an operating expense then you have a member...

Hi, Michael, Charles is right -- it is unacceptable to penalize the director by adding unnecessary expense amounts to his 1099 as taxable income, because Frank...

Here is my take on this: All compensation paid to a director is contract-driven payment for services rendered and is thus for the benefit of the individual,...
Hi everyone, Anyone have opinions to share about uniforms - who pays and who owns? I know that at least in my wife's SAI chorus, their members pay for their...
I suppose it depends on how flush the chapter treasury is. I have been in a chapter which furnished the entire uniform and it remained the property of the...
