Children thrive in safe, caring, supportive families and communities.
________________________________________________________________ Dear Foster Parent, The 1099 that you recently received regarding your foster care maintenance per diems was sent out in error. You will be receiving a corrected 1099 from the State that will, in all but a limited number of cases, show zero reportable income related to the foster care maintenance payments that you have received. In addition, at this time, no income related to foster care per diems has been reported to the Internal Revenue Service. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you.
Thank you. For 2009 tax preparation information for foster and adoptive parents, go to http://www.nfpaonline.org/uploads/2009_federal_tax_benefits(1).pdf! |
