What do you mean? If you received a 1099, you have to report it, but you don't need a 1099 to report income. Income is either ordinary or self-employment, and both of those can be on a 1099 or on no form at all.
Yes. I can issue the 1099 to myself, or not. I just don't see what the difference is.
You don't need to issue a 1099 to yourself. If you are filing a Schedule C, you enter your business expenses directly on the form. How does starting a business affect my taxes?
