The S corporation pays a dividend out of prior-years'
earnings. From the Corporation's standpoint, this is a
dividend. From the tax standpoint, this is a "distribution"
that is not taxable to the shareholder.
So my question is whether this needs to be reported on the
1099-DIV? If yes, does this go in Box 3 "Nondividend
distributions"?
TIA
