🧾 Do you need to send a 1099?

If you paid a contractor or vendor $600+ for services last year, you might — and missing it can mean IRS penalties.

Here’s the simple breakdown 👇

✔️ 1099s are required only if you paid by cash, check, ACH, or Zelle
❌ Payments made by credit card or PayPal are usually excluded
📄 Most service providers need a 1099-NEC
📆 Deadline to send: January 31

💡 Pro tip: Always collect a W-9 before paying a contractor.

Don’t want to handle your 1099s yourself? We do the boring work of financial management so you don’t have to.

🌟 Community Spotlight: Through Their Eyes 🌟

Our owner, Kristi, proudly serves on the board of the Western Slope Center for Children, and we want to show our support for their upcoming event — Through Their Eyes.

This unique experience reveals the powerful impact of a Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) by showing what a child’s journey looks like — both with and without the support of a CAC. It’s a moving and eye-opening way to understand how our community can better protect and uplift children who have endured sexual assault.

📅 Tuesday, November 18, 2025
📍 The Center for Children (2350 G Road)
🕓 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM

💌 To RSVP or learn more, contact [email protected]

Let’s come together to support the Center for Children and the critical work they do for our community. 💙
