virtuallyloud · 10-16-2006, 12:38 PM

I was hoping someone could help me with an accounting question:

I hire people overseas as independent contractors along with people from the US. All contractors fill out W9 forms and sign IC Agreements. The company is based in the US and all employees work from their home (US and NON-US).

At the end of the year I cannot send the NON-US residents a 1099 because they do not have a social security number.

How do I account for these workers? Is this just written off as a general business expense?

For some reason no CPA that I have spoken to can answer this.

Thanks in advance.
