Do contractors need to attach form 1099-MISC to their income tax return?
Is there a source stating that U.S. contractors who received 1099-MISC forms do or do not have to attach them to their federal or state return? My impression, after a bunch of searches, is that I don't have to attach 1099s, but I'm confused by TurboTax.
TurboTax asked for the name and EIN of the entity that paid me, but I don't see any trace of the entity's name or EIN in the PDF return that it produced. Why would it ask anyway, if 1099-MISC details don't have to be submitted by individuals?
TurboTax advised only to attach the W-2, but not any 1099-MISC.

If you have tax withholding reported on 1099 - then it should be attached to the return.
Otherwise, this information doesn't go anywhere on the return, but it appears in the copies you can make for yourself (with all the worksheets etc).
