family in the form of checks or cash, paying grocery bills for
which Mr. Mahabir and/or his family were, or agreed to be,
responsible, and paying other people to whom Mr. Mahabir owed
money. Sometime after 1990, when petitioner opened the checking
account, he began depositing the JMS checks into that account,
instead of cashing them at Linden Lumber. However, in all other
respects, Mr. Mahabir's arrangement with petitioner continued
through 1992.
When petitioner obtained a Social Security number (Social
Security number) in either 1991 or 1992, he asked Mr. Mahabir to
use it, but Mr. Mahabir would not do so. Around 1992 or 1993,
petitioner, who was concerned that he was depositing Mr.
Mahabir's money into petitioners' checking account and using it
on behalf of Mr. Mahabir, his family, and/or certain of Mr.
Mahabir's acquaintances and who believed that Mr. Mahabir would
fire him if he refused to continue complying with Mr. Mahabir's
arrangement, raised his concerns with Mr. Mahabir and informed
him that he wanted to discontinue Mr. Mahabir's arrangement. At
that point, Mr. Mahabir fired him.
JMS prepared a Form 1099-MISC (Form 1099) that showed that
Joseph Kawal received $49,200 in nonemployee compensation from
JMS during 1992. The Social Security number shown on the Form
1099 is not the Social Security number of petitioner.
