Form 1099-MISC is Miscellaneous Income. When employers provide you with Form 1099-MISC (instead of Form W-2 Wage and Tax Statement), they aren't considering you an employee. They're treating you as self-employed. So you're responsible for taxes (income, Social Security, Medicare).

Self-employment income is reported on Schedule C (Profit or Loss from Business) or Schedule C-EZ (Net Profit from Business). You also have to figure Self-Employment Tax on your net income (your gross income of $2,000 minus any deductible expenses).

Taking the worst case scenario that you had no deductible expenses, your self-employment tax on Schedule SE would be $283. You're allowed to deduct half ($142) of this amount from your income in the Adjusted Gross Income section (bottom section, p. 1) of Form 1040 or Form 1040A. Your adjusted gross income then would be $1,858 ($2,000 - 142). Your standard deduction ($5,450 for Single for 2008, $5,700 for 2009) and your personal exemption ($3,500 for 2008; $3,650 for 2009) reduce your taxable income to 0. But you still owe $283.00 in self-employment tax. For Single no dependents your earned income credit would be $143.00, which reduces your tax due to $140.00 ($283 - $143).

How does the government tax a 1099 form?

They don't tax a 1099 form. A 1099 form is an information return. The payer sends the recipient the 1099 form letting them know how much they paid them in the prior year. The payer sends the 1099 form to the IRS as well. The recipient reports this income on Form 1040. The IRS then double checks that what was paid, was received. The IRS uses the 1099 forms to double check but also to gain information. They can follow the money and then tax money flow when they feel like it.

Should I get a 1099 tax form for 1200 a month from my employer?

Any income that you make as a contract employee should be recorded on a 1099. Even if you only worked one day, if you were paid for that work the employer must provide you with a form 1099. If you have not received this form by January 31, contact the firm and/or the IRS to obtain it. Alternately, if you still have all the pay stubs for this employment, you can figure out how much was received and use it on your taxes, while including a form 4852 stating the 1099 or W2 wasn't received. Of course, if you are an employee - your earnings AND withholdings will be reflected on a W-2, not a 1099.

What is a 1099 tax form?

A 1099 form is an information return. Its a form the payer (the person paying out money) is required to send to the recipient and to the IRS that reports how much was paid to the recipient. The recipient declares this income on Form 1040 and the IRS can double check that what was paid, was received. If they don't match, the IRS sends a letter to the recipient asking for clarification (the letter also talks about interest and penalties which really scares the recipient).
