I am an independent contractor and hired a subcontractor with a w9 to do some work for me. I will need to issue a 1099-MISC to that person. I have an EIN associated to my SSN; can I use the EIN number when filing the 1099-MISC to that subcontractor to protect my SSN?
When I file my 1040 and Schedule C; do I have to use my EIN or SSN? The wages I earned as a independent contractor will be associated with my SSN.
