Thank you for your reply. I’m not looking to commit tax fraud. I’m just wondering how to report this properly (and legally) since my husband is NOT self-employed yet it seems like a 1099 makes it look like he is. As you can tell, I’m not an accountant. I don’t even know what a Schedule C business is. Guess I’m going to have to hire someone. And, yes, his employer’s wife controls the books and this is her terrible handiwork. She’s not interested in amending his W-2 to make it right either. Totally frustrated.
Do you know where I can read up on how she should have reported any vehicle allowances she gave him? My husband is going to have me try and put together something to show her and ask if she’ll amend the return. It’s probably a long shot, but this just wasn’t right especially if we can’t deduct all the other expenses we had using our vehicles for them.
