If you have received distributions from co-operative societies, the IRS considers this as taxable income and expects its citizens to report this revenue in the IRS tax Form 1099- PATR. This is a tax form that helps taxpayers to report their income from less-familiar sources. Taxpayers will receive this Form from the co-operatives if they were paid at least $10 as dividends or other distributions from the co-operatives in the previous tax year.
Apart from distributions the co-operatives also pay patronage dividends to their investors, depending on the profit proposition of the business. The information about this income will be reported in the tax return under the farming income or general business clause.
Who receives Form 1099- PATR?
This IRS tax Form is generally associated with farms and reports dividend income that the members or investors receive as dividends from these cooperative farms. Those who have a federal income tax withheld in correspondence with the cooperative under the backup withholding clause can also receive this tax Form.
This Form does not just report the dividend income of the taxpayers, but it also reports the share of the deductions and the tax code that is allowed by the cooperative to claim by the taxpayer. This Form should be furnished to the recipients by January 31st and should be e-filed with the IRS by March 31st, each year. The due date for paper filing this 1099 tax Form with the IRS is February 28th, 2022.
A cooperative that is engaged in retail sales of goods and services that are meant for personal use and family use of its members, is generally exempt from filing Form 1099- PATR.
