You dont need to get your 1099's in the mail. ALL Money Providers like paypal, etc have a screen for you to view it and print it out.
The ones without your real name? No problem. Name means nothing. The SSN its attached to is all that matters. People have aliases. All credit reports have a section for alias names. I have several on my credit report. Most are just rearranged names of my own though.
As long as that TIN, EIN, etc is associated with your REAL SSN then all is good.
When You file just put your real name on all of the documents and your REAL TIN, EIN, SSN that you have(Better match on all docs though)
As long as the numbers are correct and your SSN matches your TIN, EIN in "Their"(irs) system you are fine. You can have an EIN on one account and have a partnership with someone else and use your SSN on that one. As long as your SSN is the backing number on all of your TIN EIN's then you are fine.
Too many people have similar and exact same names to make the name any part of identifying you. You would be surprised at how many people in the world have the same exact first, middle and last name as yours. The number is the key thing
Hope I covered what you wanted.
Now, I am not legally a tax expert so this post is not to be taken as Professional advice. Its comment on what I know and thats all.
Too many people are waiting until just now to figure all this tax stuff out and GB has said many times, This is NOT new, this is an issue that everyone has been told about since 2009. If you didnt know about it then you haven't read emails and messages from paypal, amazon, ebay, etc.
Good luck.
