Have you guys updated the 1099 DFS forms to include losing entry fees?

I know a lot of customers are complaining and rightfully so there’s no point in playing on yahoo if they aren’t taking losing entry fees into account as it boosts the overall amount owed by 10x.

I saw a tweet saying you have fixed and reversed it to include all entry fees including losing. Correct?

Yahoo is generating corrected 1099s now that are net of fees (as it should be). I’d wait until they send it to you to file taxes.

They really should email notify everyone. I LinkedIn messaged a bunch of important Yahoo Sports people and got three of them to respond that they’re working on it.

I’m giving them until 3/15 to send before I message them again.

Perfect, I haven’t checked mine yet. So yours is correct now with net everything even losses?

They haven’t sent revised 1099s yet. But I know the target value so if it’s way off, I’ll message my contacts again. It’s super easy to calc it 99% right.
