    ​A partnership LLC did a 1031 exchange, selling one property and purchasing three properties, each purchased in its own single member LLCs, owned by the original LLC.

    The tenant of one LLC went into bankruptcy and stopped paying rent.  The LLC stopped paying the mortgage.  The only asset of the LLC is the property.  if the bank forecloses, and the single member LLC is insolvent, will the cancellation of debt income be taxable to the partners of the LLC?

    Thanks

    If you do have COD income, you can elect to reduce the basis in the property.

    Just curious

    Considering the original 1031 included a reinvestment in three entities

    If there were insufficient basis in the one LLC, could you reduce basis in the other two ?

    Unfortunately, the basis is negligible among all of the properties.​

    Actually, the client probably does have basis here, as you probably have to recognize the deferred gain, on the disposition.

    Just thought this was important

    Had a client ask me if they needed to prepare a 1099 NEC or MISC for payments for services in their business paid by credit card

    They use Quickbooks and they were telling me that Quickbooks did not pick up the CC payments as part of the 1099 reporting because of the new rules
        That was back in the old days of the beginning of December
            

    Any idea where we stand at this point for the 1/31/2023 deadline?

    It is my understanding that the credit card companies will issue a 1099 showing how much was paid. Also it is usually broken down by monthly totals. At least that is what I have received in the past for my credit card sales (and some of my other client.)

    I don't believe the new reporting rules change this in any way. Transactions paid via credit card do not need to be included on 1099s because the credit card company will issue a 1099K for them.  As a business owner or their accountant, we would have no way of knowing how much a particular vendor had received in total in credit card transactions or total dollars.

    Not addressing vendors, what about Consultants and Professionals like Accountants and Attorneys?

    I don't believe this makes any difference. You could receive credit card payments from several clients. We receive a 1099K ourselves under the old rules for credit card payments. So if a client had issued us a 1099 for those card payments it would be a duplicate. Which it needs to be avoided. I believe credit card payments are exempt in total. The business paying the vendor/consultant does not have the burden to confirm that the payee has or hasn't reached the 1099k threshold.

    Just so I am clear as to the interpretation under the new postponement


    If an Attorney is paid $20,000.00 for services by a business, on a credit card in 2022, the business has no requirement to issue a 1099?

    This is my understanding, yes. But I don't think this is any different than it has been. The new reporting is for third party platforms. No impact on the reporting done by the business, except for maybe they no longer need to be concerned about issuing the 1099s on venmo, etc payments themselves

    Cancellation of debt results in taxable income. If the LLC is disregarded or a pass thru entity then the owners will get income. If we assume the LLC is insolvent then your client should consider the income exclusion provided by IRC Section 108. The federal and state bankruptcy codes should be consulted.

    The Section 108 Exclusion rules require that for Partnerships,  insolvency is tested at the individual partner level.  Results will vary at the individual level.  Other available elections need to be considered such as qualified real property business debt, basis reduction,  etc.
