Does Rover have a TIN (taxpayer identification number)?

I'm trying to fill out my 1099 based on my earnings for the year on my Rover account dashboard. I have been able to figure out that Rover nor Paypal will send me a 1099 due to the fact that my earnings are over $600, withdrawn via PayPal and less than 20k. I'm looking at the forms online and am unable to decipher which "copy" of the 1099MISC to fill out. My tax accountant has suggested I file a Schedule C but by all accounts I see all the sitters in the community using 1099s... 1099s have a box for a TIN though, and I'm not sure how to figure out how to link that 1099 to Rover without it. Does Rover withdraw our taxes for us? This is incredibly frustrating and I'm unable to get any solid answers via Rover support, Paypal, the IRS, or my tax accountant.

Listen to your tax accountant regarding Schedule C.

Rover will not provide you with a TIN but actually you don't need it to make out Sched C you only need to report your income. And there is no reason to create a bogus 1099 since we don't get one from Rover.

So how do you suggest that they, I, or anyone else report their income without filing a 1099??? You dont get a 1099 from an employer, you get a W-2 from an employer. It is up to you to file a 1099.

You don't need a 1099 to report your income on Schedule C. It isn't like you have to attach them to your return. Walt is correct.
