I am in the entertainment industry, and receive all payments through my agent. My agent pays me, after deducting his commission, and issues the 1099s.
This year, the payer issued a 1099-NEC to me instead of the agent. My agent is required to issue me a 1099 as well, for the same amount (and others paid over the year) so I am going to wind up with two 1099s if this is not correct.
Both my agent and myself have reached out to the payer to rectify the matter, but it is a large organization and correction of the matter is not guaranteed.
If not, what do I do?
