I have always been told, and see multiple references stating that employers/business must issues a 1099-NEC to their independent contractors / freelancers if they paid that person $600 or more during the year. I work for multiple companies who, whenever I've asked about receiving a 1099 (because I made $600+), have their accountants respond stating that it's my job to report my wages myself and they their company does not issue 1099s. Where is the line here? How come some companies don't have to issue them?
