How do you file income when a 1099 is not issued? My husband works contract labor but payments are made via Bill Pay as if he was a company.

It sounds as if he is self-employed even though he is not receiving a Form 1099-MISC reporting his income. He will file his income and expenses on Schedule C because he is his own company providing his services to those he works for.

Use your own records to determine his total income for the year and enter it as 'cash' income when you are working on the Schedule C.
