PIER NATIONAL NOTARY

Calling all Notaries,

I was reading some post and the mortgage/escrow companies have paid them because I have called the borrowers and all the loans went through.

They are giving us the run around. My suggestions 1099 them for the income they owe you! Make them responsible to Uncle Sam for the $$ they made off of us the notaries. It is legal and accountants have reccommended it. Think of it this way, if we are getting screwed with free services screw them with the taxes! This can apply to every company who does not pay. So let us UNITE and post all EIN numbers of every company who has not paid! Lets work together in this tuff market.

I am lookin g through my records for their EIN number if anyone else has it please port it!

Have you tried to resolve whatever issues you are having

Directly with the companies whose names you have posted?
If so, without results, consider filing a small claims suit.

And FWIW, I don't think it would be prudent to post any company's EIN on a public forum.
Not very professional behavior. You have other options which are accepted practice.

Yes I have tried all other avenues. They are not responding. Besides in small claims court you are still responsible for collecting your own awards at least here in CA. And if the company goes belly up there is no one to collect from. But you are always responsible for the income you made before a BK

And even if you receive one but they haven't paid you

the IRS has a procedure for challenging the 1099.

OTOH, a 1099 isn't required or expected for amounts under $600, so I'm not sure if the IRS even looks at those.
