Why does amount on my 1099-MISC form doesn’t match my checks?

The amount of royalties reported on the 1099 is the gross amount of royalties paid before any backup withholding. The royalty amount should match the amount of royalties on your statements from the last quarter of the previous year to the third quarter of the current year, plus any iPad or offset distribution royalties wherever applicable. The total amount paid to you is the royalty income amount minus the withholding. If you still believe that it is inaccurate, please contact our customer support.
