all income is supposed to be reported. Create a dummy 1099-div in the name of the company

  • At the screen How would you like to upload, select Type it in myself.
  • Enter 1099-DIV information.

In order to be considered qualified dividends, the dividends must:

 

  • Be paid by an American company or a qualifying foreign company
  • Be paid between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023
  • Meet the holding period requirement for the stock—the holding period is at least 60 days during the 121-day period that begins 60 days before the ex-dividend date (the day after a company announces its dividend payments to shareholders).
