I don't know what a 1099 is

There are about two dozen kinds of 1099's that report various kinds of income you received. We need to know what kind you have so we can tell you how to enter it on your tax return. Does it say 1099MIsc, 1099R, 1099-DIV, 1099INT, etc? What letters or numbers do you see on the document?
