NOTE: TACSM must issue 1099 forms for all payments to students of $600 or more, so student award winners will be expected to report this income to the IRS if the award checks are made out to them. Or, if the student prefers, TACSM can have the award checks made out to the student’s University. For this to happen, a faculty member at that institution must pre-authorize this and TACSM should be informed prior to the annual meeting.
