For IRS Form 1042-S, do I report each payment separately or the total amount paid for a tax year?

I receive this question often.  For the 1099 forms, if you have multiple transactions or payments to a recipient during a year, you don’t send them multiple 1099 forms.  Instead, send them one 1099 form with the totals for that tax year.

IRS Form 1042-S is the same as the 1099- forms in this regard.  If you paid someone multiple times, put together one 1042-S form at the end of the year to show the total amount paid and withheld and so forth.
