This is certainly a switch from a few years ago, you wanted escrow to pay me your full fee and I would write you a check for your fee. But of course that meant I would pay taxes on your share, because you certainly didn't want me to send you a 1099, after all.
In all the years I've been a notary, no SS owner has ever asked me to do this for them.
This is clearly an escrow error and they need to fix it. |
