Levy

[pjean]

One of my clients rec'd a levy letter from the IRS re: a vendor's payments. The vendor never sent the client a W-9 form and therefore when sent in 1099 to IRS, rec'd letter from IRS stating EIN/SS# did not match their records. Sent a B notice to Vendor with no response. The Vendor has not provided any services to us since 2009. Is the client (the payor) obligated to any tax payments or is it just the vendor (payee)?

Thanks for advice.

your post is so terse it is almost unreadable. Next time try including all the subjects in your sentences ("when sent in 1099 to IRS" ) - who sent ? vendor ? your client?? c'mon help us help you.

Base on the scraps of info , seems that IRS is levying on the vendor. So IRS is telling you that any future payments to that vendor have to have some portion sent to IRS.
