Major Changes in W2 and 1099 for 2026 Compliance! Learn How to Mitigate IRS New Requirements!
Recorded Webinar | Margie Faulk | From: Mar 19, 2026 - To: Dec 31, 2026

Major updates for 2026 W-2 and Form 1099 are being introduced under the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA), including an increased 1099 reporting threshold and new reporting codes on the W-2 form for tips and overtime. These updates must be part of your compliance efforts. The changes will impact not only your payroll taxes but also the independent contractors protocol.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) has over 900 pages of provisions that are temporary and permanent. This has impacted organizations nationwide.
Employers will need to report the total amount of cash and non-cash tips reported by an employee and the occupation of the employee on the employee’s Form W-2. It does not end there. Likewise, businesses and other payors that issue Forms 1099 to tipped contractors will have to separately report designated tips and the recipient’s occupation on the Form 1099.
The OBBB Act instructs the IRS to update the applicable income tax withholding procedures and tax forms to reflect this new deduction and required occupation listing.
There are many challenges and confusion for Employers and employees on what needs to be done with these IRS changes. This training will outline the changes and compliance efforts that need to be put in place to avoid fines, penalties, and criminal sanctions.
