there is no tax advantage to the employer to give the wrong amount.
You are paying the SE tax.
ask the employer for a corrected 1099-NEC.
maybe you misplaced a paycheck and did not deposit it.
If you received an erroneous 1099, You have several choices (I would do #3):
Maybe they included some expenses they reimbursed you for?
Thanks, Hal_Al.
I see the #3 solution is optimal tho. Are there any cons (weaknesses) of the #3 solution I should know about?
Keep your records, in case you get audited. It may be helpful if you can show that you made some effort to get a corrected 1099-NEC.
That said, #3 is the most recommended action, in this forum.
Thanks, mate!
