Payments Subject to Backup Withholding
Rents, non-employee compensation for services, royalties, reportable gross proceeds paid to attorneys, and other fixed or determinable gains, profits, or income payments that are reportable on Form 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Income.
Backup withholding does not apply to wages or pension payments.

From the instructions for 1099-MISC is the following................
Also include amounts paid to a winner of a sweepstakes not involving a wager. If a wager is made, report the winnings on Form W-2G, Certain Gambling Winnings.
So it seems that 1099-MISC has nothing to do with us.
2) Is a remission payment income? If so is it gamblin income?
It is like a dog chasing it's tale. Gives us something to do but accomplishes nothing although it does keep us occupied. Hopefully we will know something "soon".
Time to play some poker now!
