When a REALTOR® works as an independent contractor rather than an employee of a brokerage company, the brokerage companies may issue an annual Form 1099 to the REALTOR to report amounts paid to the broker. When the REALTOR® agrees to return part of a commission to the buyer or the seller, and this has been structured as a reduced commission or as a credit on the closing statement, the 1099-MISC issued by the brokerage company should reflect only the net amounts paid to the REALTOR® and this amount will be reported as gross income. If however, the REALTOR® received the gross commission and actually returned some to the seller or buyer, the gross amount is reported and the REALTOR® should be entitled to a corresponding deduction.

IS THIS FACTUAL AS MY Broker has added all dollars even though not taken into my 1099 NEC
