I know I colluded Social Security with use tax but it was to show how sales/income can be tracked.

Payers are not on the hook for any SS taxes. [/quote]
How does it work say if I 1099 a firm in the amount of several hundred thousand dollars. Now suppose they skip out and don’t pay. And there is an audit. Are you saying the IRS will not knock on my door asking for at least the employer half?
Or, put a different way say if I use a fly by night company and 1099 them and later it was determined they gave me a bogus TIN or SS number and disappear. Don’t I still owe the IRS if they can’t collect from them?
