No, it is not taxable.
The credit you received from the bank was a return of excess payments that you made at closing.

Hi Leonard, I would like further clarification. So, we do not have to report credits that they gave us, even though they applied the credit during the closing?

I also recieved one for the same reason. However, the 1099-Misc is submitted to the IRS. How do you correct this to avoid paying taxes for this sum? It should show that I'm missing a 1099-MISC reporting if I tried to just file without it.
