Volunteer Driver/1099 quetions

 05-06-26

 Two Questions:

 

  1. Who is using the state mileage reimbursement rate ($0.74) for foster care & volunteer drivers? Who stayed with the IRS rates ($0.725)?
  2. Who is issuing 1099s to their drivers?

 Cass has been going round and round (for years!) on whether or not to issue 1099s to our volunteer drivers. Some documents say yes. Some say no. Some say maybe. Someone finds a “loophole”, new people come in with new perspectives…. I checked the blog – reread all the docs & watched the fiscal group meeting again, but we still can’t agree.

 

Any input would be appreciated!

 

Thank you,
