Who needs 1099-OID Form

My guess is that at least one of the assumptions in this question is incorrect, in that most, if not all, “sovereign citizens” in the U.S. have social security numbers, which were issued when they were born or before they held their first jobs.As concerns the second assumption, “no contact with the government” may be desired, but it is unlikely to be achieved for the long term because, by and large, hard-core “sovereign citizens” are criminals (not merely wackos), thus they will subject to the actions of law enforcement.Quoting portions of 5 common crimes committed by sovereign citizens (emphasis added):Law enforcement must understand the sovereign citizen movement, and be able to identify specific components that make up the movement, in order to protect themselves.In a study conducted by The National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) in 2022. law enforcement agencies identified the sovereign citizen movement as the greatest threat to their communities. To put it in perspective, the same study in 2022 identified Islamic extremists as the greatest threat.WHAT IS A SOVEREIGN CITIZEN?Sovereign citizens believe that federal, state, and local governments operate illegally. Additionally, some sovereign citizens believe federal and state officials have no real authority and will only recognize the local sheriff’s department as the only legitimate government official.The actions of sovereign citizens, to “fix the system” range from quirky-but-legal to severe crimes. According to the FBI, when sovereign citizens feel their ideals are challenged they can escalate to violence quickly. Since 2022. lone-offender sovereign citizen extremists have killed six law enforcement officers.Law enforcement must understand the sovereign citizen movement and be able to identify indicators to protect themselves from the group’s threatening tactics. Most of these crimes are based on the Redemption Theory.WHAT IS THE REDEMPTION THEORY AND A STRAWMAN BIRTH CERTIFICATE?The Redemption Theory says that when the U.S. dollar was taken off the gold standard, the government started using its citizens as collateral. Sovereign citizens believe that social security numbers, birth certificates, even zip codes are part of a system that assigns a collateral value to every citizen.At the center of the theory is the idea that U.S. citizens have two identities. One identity is a legal entity known as a strawman, created by a birth certificate—thus strawman birth certificate. The second identity is you as a physical person. The theory claims that when you reject your strawman identity, your physical person is no longer liable for the strawman’s debts.Sovereign citizens believe a secret bank account exists at the United States Department of the Treasury. They exploit this belief by filing fraudulent financial documents, charging their debt to the Treasury Department and committing additional mortgage, credit card, tax, and loan fraud.It’s common for sovereign citizens to continue their schemes from behind bars and learn new tactics from inmates and spread their ideology within prison walls which make the schemes increasingly clever and difficult to identify.1. Income tax evasionA commonly described “benefit” of sovereignty is the nonessential need to pay federal or state taxes. According to the Redemption Theory, a sovereign citizen is not responsible for tax debts because they denounced the identity assigned to them by their so-called strawman birth certificate. Thus, taxes are the responsibility of the strawman and not the sovereign citizen….2. The redemption schemeProponents of this scheme claim that the U.S. government control bank accounts—often referred to as “U.S. Treasury Direct Accounts” • for all U.S. citizens. Sovereign citizens claim these accounts can be accessed by submitting paperwork with state and federal authorities.This scheme predominately uses fraudulent financial documents that appear to be legitimate. These documents are frequently referred to as “bills of exchange,” “promissory bonds,” “indemnity bonds,” “offset bonds,” or “sight drafts.” Other official documents frequently used include IRS forms 1099, 1099-OID, and 8300….3. Selling fraudulent documentsSovereign citizens commit financial crimes with the assistance of a wide range of fake documents. They forge financial documents to establish lines of credit, create fake businesses, and more.According to the FBI, sovereign citizens forge and sell drivers• licenses, passports, diplomatic identification, vehicle registrations, concealed firearms permits, law enforcement credentials, and insurance forms. In Kansas City, sovereign citizens were convicted of forging diplomatic immunity cards and selling them for up to $2000….4. Financial fraud schemesSovereign citizens commit many types of fraud—mail, bank, insurance, mortgage, and wire fraud • and try to justify their actions through their beliefs….5. Intimidation and obstruction of law enforcementSovereign citizens use their fraudulent methods to target officers. They often try to intimidate law enforcement officers and prevent them from fulfilling their duty.Sovereign citizens use counterfeit entities to make themselves appear to be members of the Constitution Rangers, Republic of Texas Rangers, U.S. Marshals, Civil Rights Task Force, and more. Sovereigns who purport to represent such agencies often have identification cards, badges, and sometimes even accessories such as police raid jackets.Using these props, sovereign citizens have attempted to get past courtroom security, issue warrants and indictments, extricate themselves from encounters with police, and even to intimidate or “interrogate” others.Additionally, sovereign citizens may request an oath of office, proof of jurisdiction, film interactions with officers, and more. Sovereign citizens can also use legitimate federal documents, such as suspicious activity reports to target law enforcement officers• reputations….

If you have a taxable Lending Club investment account (not an IRA account) you will may receive a 1099-OID form or you may not. Why? Because Lending Club will only report interest income received on notes where the amount of interest exceeds $10. So, if you invest in a lot of $25 notes then the 1099 will not reflect your total taxable income from Lending Club.The yearly statement from Lending Club will have most of what you need. It will contain your total interest earned, income from fees, losses from charged off loans, and a total net return. It will not list service fees, which I believe can be deducted. For those you will have to go to your monthly statements.In summary, while taxes are not really a headache on Lending Club it is not a trivial answer either. But you should be able to figure out a final number of taxable interest with about an hour's work. I wrote more about p2p lending and taxes here:http://www.sociallending.net/inv...P.S. I am not an accountant so this cannot be taken as tax advice.

First a K1 implies this is a partnership or S Corp and generally you would expect to see convertible debt investments in a C Corporation, which does not issue K1's.  Still not totally impossible to have convertible debt in a pass-through tax entity, but as long as it is debt and not equity there is no equity interest to be reported on the K1.  Be sure the debt instrument does not grant them some profit sharing interest pre-conversion.

The collapse of global economic systems would result in a debt jubilee and the elimination of fake value or wealth.There would be no income or debt or financial instruments of any kind.The planet would revert back to the original natural real value system of nature.Today with the existence of science and technology we have the tools to maintain a real value transfer system.Value equals Nature which sustains all LifeValuenomics is my replacement for failed economics.The conversion to a real value system is actually easier than it might seem.There are many places to start and it can be done in chunks.As fake value is eliminated efficiency will rise and waste will decrease.Income inequality would not exist nor would need.The planet’s human population becomes interdependent and national and religious barriers dissipate.Organizations would demonetize and exist for public service.Workers would be volunteers in their areas of expertise while robots and AI would assume the manual chores as diggers, carriers, builders and gatherers.Nature optimization including restoration, distribution and repair would be the primary concern of all human beings.Agriculture would be one of the logical tools of choice.V=N=LRead my blogs and contribute your ideas.
