Don't get upset please. This is just a public user to user forum of users helping each other. (Or at least trying to). We all make mistakes, and that's how we learn. With the 1099-MISC, that income is not considered investment earnings by the IRS. It's considered earned income that you earned by actually working for it. The company that issued it (from their perspective) doesn't consider you an investor for that specific income. They consider you a contractor that provided goods or services to the company that issued that form to you. Please show this to the CEO too. In fact, you should be conversing with the CFO on this, not the CEO. The CFO is the one who signs that paper attesting things are right, and risks legal problems if they're not.
