W9/1099

You are responsible for any and all tax liability arising from or associated with your use of this Website, including liability arising from your accrual of redemptions. We will require you to provide necessary tax information about yourself prior to receiving a redemption if you qualify during a calendar year. This is what the MP site states:

We will file a 1099 tax form for any Member who redeems $600 or greater in one calendar year from our company with prior earnings from any of the following activities:

Registration/Promotional/Referral
Search
Surveys
Videos

If they file a 1099 with the IRS you are supposed to get a copy. Mind you, I said "supposed to".

Survey 35504895 - earned 49 Points. Asked a lot of questions about politics, then came to a section that said you could get $20 via Amazon and others if you would spend 70 minutes watching the State of the Union address and use a slider to show how you agree or disagree (or like or dislike, I don't remember exactly). I said no, and when I was returned to the MP page, I did get credit for the survey without having to watch the video.

I cashed in for paypal on 2/18 and got it today 3/2 so I guess whatever issues they had with paypal have been worked out.

opps, I had a typo, cashed out on 2/28 not 2/18. So it was 2 days.

I just finished a survey asking me about various ads that it played, mostly about Sonic. The ad featured 3 guys talking about half price slushes. Among the series of questions was a whole page of questions about how women were represented in the ad. What women? LOL Stupid survey companies.
