TIN Comply launches free 1099 compliance resource site

TIN Comply has launched TINCompliance.com, a free education hub for finance, accounts payable and tax teams handling TIN matching, B-Notices, backup withholding and Form 1099 deadlines. The site arrives ahead of the 2026 filing season, when the 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC reporting threshold rises to $2,000 and digital-asset brokers begin full 1099-DA reporting.

Why it matters: - Finance, accounts payable and tax teams now have a free hub built to help them handle IRS information-reporting tasks in one place. - The launch lands before the 2026 filing season, when new reporting rules raise the Forms 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC threshold from $600 to $2,000. - The site also arrives as digital-asset brokers begin full Form 1099-DA reporting, adding another compliance burden for affected teams.

What happened: - TIN Comply launched TINCompliance.com on Sept. 23, 2026. - The site is a free educational resource for teams responsible for collecting taxpayer identification numbers and filing Forms 1099. - TINCompliance.com is available now at TINCompliance.com.

The details: - The site includes 11 plain-English guides covering IRS TIN matching, W-9 solicitation rules under Reg. 301.6724-1, the CP2100 and B-Notice process, backup withholding at 24%, Notice 972CG penalties, reasonable-cause waivers, sanctions screening, foreign payees, Forms W-8 and 1042-S, and a worked CP2100 response example. - The site offers seven browser-based calculators, including a B-Notice deadline calculator that counts business days and federal holidays under IRS Publication 1281. - Other calculators cover Notice 972CG penalty estimates using 2025 and 2026 amounts, TIN format checks, solicitation and backup-withholding calculations, and vendor-file health checks. - Nothing entered into the calculators is sent or stored. - The site provides word templates for First and Second B-Notice letters, a reasonable-cause statement, W-9 request emails and a vendor TIN compliance policy. - The resource also includes an Excel solicitation log. - An interactive 2026-2027 compliance calendar covers filing, statement, Form 945, solicitation and notice-season dates. - Users can add their own CP2100 or account-opening dates. - The calendar can be downloaded or subscribed to as an .ics feed. - A reference section includes 2025 and 2026 thresholds, penalty tiers, due dates, an IRS notice decoder, a glossary, state requirements, and explainers on Form 945, Form 1099-DA and IRS Letter 147C. - Industry guides cover healthcare, property management, marketplaces and gig platforms, financial institutions, universities and government, legal, gaming, logistics, crypto and fintech, nonprofits and insurance. - Every figure on the site cites IRS publications, revenue procedures or the Internal Revenue Code. - Each page shows the date it was last reviewed. - The site is published by TIN Comply and carries no advertising.

Between the lines: - The launch targets a recurring pain point: IRS notices and deadlines that are public but spread across multiple publications and forms. - TIN Comply is positioning the site as a practical workflow tool, not just a reference library, by combining guides, calculators, templates and calendar tools. - The free model may broaden access for smaller finance teams that do not want to buy compliance software just to track deadlines and forms.

What's next: - Teams handling vendor onboarding and 1099 reporting can use the site ahead of the 2026 filing season. - Users can extend the compliance calendar with their own notice or account-opening dates. - TIN Comply said the site will keep citing source material and updating review dates as rules change.

The bottom line: - TIN Comply is trying to make a messy slice of 1099 compliance faster to navigate, easier to calendar and free to access.
