while they sat on my money). I just discovered this document, and I've
already filed my 07 taxes. If I get audited, I'm goint to just tell
them that "I'm sitting on it" and that "I'll gladly pay them interest
on the $13" but thell get a 1099 from me".

I think the question is if this should be treated the same as a 1099-
Int versus a 1099-G or a 1099-R or whatever. The form I received
simply says 1099 and doesn't specify beyond that.

Yes, is this a trick question?

I assume the IRS refunded some tax and paid you interest?

I receved one of these and was just wondering how to claim it. Would
it just be like a 1099-Int?

If that's the case, why not simply put a line on the tax form to add
the interest to your income above the line?

It just struck me, but why in the world would they send a 1099? Isn't
the purpose to notify the IRS? Don't they know already?

Or is it just their way of saying "gocha"? I wonder if what they'll
recover in tax on those interest charges will be greater than the costs
of creating and sending all those 1099.

from the IRS was
exactly the amount calculated as interest for my telephone excise tax
refund on Form 8913.

If you filed for a phone federal excise tax refund, check your 2006 return
Form 8913. This is probably the interest compounded on your phone federal
excise tax refund March 2003 thru July 2006. They get you coming and
going.
