Some other royalty owners may also have this problem. I am gathering together everything to take to our CPA, but I appreciate the input from the people we have on our forum. I feel very fortunate.
Most of the other operators put the total amount of the royalties on Line 2 of the 1099 and add additional information to show what we were actually paid. However, Sabine (and a few operators with old wells with minimal production), does not provide any additional information so it would indicate they paid us about 40% more than they actually did. We have sent two emails to Sabine with no response. We have copies of all of our checks, so I guess we will provide those to the CPA. We appreciate any comments. This has probably been discussed before, but we could not find it on the forum. Thanks Kathy
