CMP - Creating a 1099 Log (Poker)

Tags CMP Log

Background Information

A 1099 log entry must be created anytime a patron earns non-wagered winnings (gaming prizes and awards, tournaments with no entry fee, e.g., bad beats,).  If the patron’s annual total of non-wagered winnings meet or exceed $600 in a calendar year, he or she will be mailed an official 1099-MISC tax form from Casino Arizona. This Job Aid outlines the steps to create a 1099 log entry in Casino Marketplace.

Creating a 1099 Log Entry

  1. Search for the Player Account in the Player Window
  2. Select the Player account
  3. Press F2 to open the player record and verify that all information is accurate. NOTE: a Social Security Number is REQUIRED
  4. Once complete press Cancel to return to the Player Window
  5. Choose 1009 log from the Jump To drop-down list
  6. Add the following information in the 1099 Log tab:
    • Location - Should indicate IPOKER
    • Department - Will populate automatically based on the Location
    • Amount - Input the amount won
    • Event - CRA-approved promotion name
    • Remarks - Additional details or comments to identify
  7. Verify that no Tax Withholdings are being made
  8. Click Submit

Printing a 1099 Log Entry

Log entries do not print automatically, however there are two occasions when they should be printed:

  • If a customer requests a copy (NOTE: The log is NOT an official tax form)
  • If the winnings are $600 or more, a copy should be signed by the patron and sent to the Title 31 Associate

Procedures for Making Changes

  • If an existing record does not match the player’s Social Security card, a photocopy of the identification must be made and sent with a request for correction to a Title 31 Associate.
  • Do NOT change the player name or Social Security number in Casino Marketplace.
  • Do NOT attempt to change the 1099 log in Casino Marketplace
  • Guest contact information (address, phone, e-mail) may be updated when necessary
