My foreign-owned LLC paid two U.S. designers and a U.S. landlord — which 1099 goes to whom?
I'm a non-resident owner of a Delaware single-member LLC that does B2B web design. In 2025 the LLC paid two U.S.-based freelance designers $4,800 and $7,200 respectively, and also paid a U.S. landlord $9,600 for a virtual mailbox + occasional meeting space. I'm trying to figure out which 1099 form each payment requires, what the deadlines are, and whether being a foreign-owned LLC changes anything about the 1099 process.
