Argh!
Where, if anywhere, am I supposed to attach the 1099-MISC? I've got everything else filled out: the forms for profit or loss from a business, self-employment tax, and the fuckin' 1040 itself, which I swear gets more hateful every time I look its way, and I can't find any instructions pertaining to whether I even have to enclose the 1099-MISC, let alone staple it to some crucial piece of paper or whatever. So far the two most sensible solutions I've come up with are:
- I don't have to enclose the 1099-MISC, just the business and self-employment tax forms.
- I should just stick an extra copy of the 1099-MISC in the envelope with my 1040 and all that other crap, just in case.
I think I'm gonna go with option #2 unless I meet someone who knows better in my quest to photocopy everything and get it all in the mail. Argle-bargle!
