Without getting too complex...there is never a real detriment to sending an uneeded 1099. Say it is to s Corp, who normally doesn't need one sent. That's because they are an accrual and maybe different calander year reporter...and they already should have accounted for what your reporting one way or another. if its someone who doesn't need the info or the IRS doesn't need the info for, the receipt of the 1099 makes no difference...they can toss it out and know they already reported it anyway.

On the other hand....don't send one to someone that should get it, and you may be fined, substantially...something like $500 per form, and that just starts the problems!
