CRAZYNESS
Here is what I finally found:
www.irs.gov/plain/news/efoia/6209toc.htm
Went to section 2 and looked up W-2's, W-4's, and 1099's. Looked to the right under "Tax Class" and I see five (5).
Then went to section four(4). This shows the Document Locator Number assigned to every return or document input through the ADP system. The third number of the DLN is the tax class.
Then I went to the second page of section four, where it lists what type of Taxes the "Tax Class" is associated with. The above mentioned forms look to be associated, and only associated with, Estate and Gift Taxes.
Now, please tell me if I am wrong, and if so how: But, what this is telling me is..... The money paid to me for my labor is classified as either an Estate or Gift Tax (class 5).
Shouldn't I be filling out the IRS Form 709 or 709A "Gift Tax Return" or simular? Because when I look at the "Tax Class" for a 1040 form, it shows a number one (2).
