RE: IRS ANNOUNCES PROPOSAL TO COMBINE FORMS 1099-R AND W-2P
__________________________________________________________
Attached is a copy of IRS Announcement 89-94, which states
that the IRS is considering combining Forms 1099-R and W-2P for
tax year 1991. Form W-2P would be eliminated and Form 1099-R
would be designated Form 1099-R/W-2P. The new form would be
filed only with the IRS, eliminating the need to file Form W-2P
with the Social Security Administration.
The announcement includes a proof copy of the proposed
form. The proof copy contains all of the boxes currently used on
Form 1099-R.
The IRS has requested comments on this proposal by
September 15, 1989. Please contact the undersigned by Friday,
September 8 if you have any suggestions for inclusion in the
Institute's comments.
