1099k from Paypal for High School Reunion Tickets

[catorina]

My husband got a 1099K for High School Reunion Tickets purchased via his account. The monies are going to the Reunion Committee to pay for the reunion. He is making no money, and this isn't income. How do we put on our taxes? I assume we need to offset so it zeroes out. Just want to make sure I do it right.

After you have reported the amount from the 1099-K, the next screen will ask you if you need to adjust any of the amounts.  You indicate "yes," and then show that the amount needs to be on the Reunion's tax number, instead.  I hope you guys applied for a tax number for the group?
