David I know that you know a lot about tax return and how to used in the best possible way TT e-filling system. Following your advice this year I decided to report my Foreign Social Security Pension on Line 8 of Form 1040 / Schedule 1 as Miscellaneous / Other Income . I have the problem that regarding Form 1099 MISC the system requires me to put the Federal EIN but because I’m my case the Payor is a foreign one it’s equivalent EIN has more digit that the digit that have the US Payors . So, the system doesn’t accept neither the EIN of my foreign Payor nor [removed], nor [removed] nor any other dummy number like [removed]. Furthermore the e-filling doesn’t accept either the zip code of my Foreign Payor because obviously the system only is focused on US zip codes. Incredible . Is there any way to prepare the Form 1099 MISC for Foreign Payors ? Which is thd solution ? Perhaps to attach an explanatory note but I was told by somebody of this chat that TT e-filling doesn’t allow to enclose / attach any note at all. What happen if I to “tools” and I delete the Form 1099 MISC ? Then if IRS request some clarification I would reply with an extensive and well grounded explanatory letter by certified mail and that is it. What fo you think ? Thanks in advance
