How Do I Report Income from a Landscaping Service on a 1099 Form?

Report income from a landscaping service on Form 1099-NEC. You must issue a 1099 form to a landscaping service that your business paid $600 or more for their services in a tax year.

Do not issue a Form 1099-NEC to a business that is incorporated.

Request a Form W-9 from a business that you hire to confirm whether it is incorporated. The vendor must include their federal tax classification on the form with the other information that you need to file a 1099 income report.
