Is there even a likelihood of them getting a 1099 to trigger the inquiry or would that really only happen when an employer reports a disbursement to an employee, such as a rollover or pension or what have you? I’d have a hard time imagining they would scrutinize everyone’s 1099Rs without an employer disbursement to make them smell blood.
I've never seen anything that makes me think the UI people get them directly. They might get them from the state tax people, but 1099Rs only get issued once a year. Also, it would be impractical to look at all people getting 1099Rs and on UI. I've never gotten a 1099R from a 401K distribution that was directly to me. My 401K distributions were always trustee-to-trustee and may have been coded in a way that wouldn't have triggered anything.
