Affiliate Marketing Secrets

But report the amount I made ($1800)? I thought this form was for my records only…what difference does it make if I say the exact amount I made, whether of not I turn in the form. I work for myself, and I’m not employed by anyone. One of my clients says he mailed me a 1099…but I don’t want myself to be affiliated with him or his company. So…can I just report the amount I made instead? Sorry this is the first time I’m filing taxes. I thought I needed the 1099… Which is why I’ve been waiting this long. But it isn’t coming, so can I just go into a tax place and tell them what I made?
