Turkeys and taxes

The NBA season may be unusually absent at this time of year, but thankfully we can still count on Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and oh yes... preparation for taxes. Before falling asleep next to a warm fireplace with a belly full of savory delicacies and sugary sweets, be sure to log in to your AdSense account to double-check your address. To ensure that your AdSense account reflects your current tax standing, you may even re-submit your tax information. We’ll soon be using the information in your AdSense account to generate your tax forms for 2011, so you’ll want to make sure that the information we have is correct.

Remember, you’ll only receive a tax form 1099-MISC from us if you're a U.S. publisher and you meet either of the following requirements:

• You submitted a Form W-9, are not a corporation, and were paid at least US $600 in 2011
• You indicated that you are subject to backup withholding and had taxes withheld

Enjoy the festivities!
