I'd tell him that it's not deductible, and he knew better when he did it.
It's the same as if he paid them out of his own pocket.
I'm sure he'll love that!

My client, a subcontractor for a siding and patio company, has a couple of guys working for him. One has a ss#, the other 2 don't. He paid them all cash. I'll 1099 the legal guy, but how should I handle the reporting of the payments to the 2 others? He paid them each about $27,000.thanks,DonnaDonna J.
