Creditors and Bankruptcy/settlements form 1099-C

Question
I am going to try and settle my debts myself. If they go to collections, do they issue these forms or only the major creditors? I do not want IRS looking for me!!! I hear that people are having to claim the write off settlement as income.

Answer
They issue 1099 forms for every account settled that saves a consumer $600.00 or more.  Think twice about performing the work yourself, you probably don't hold the required experience when dealing with creditors/ debt collectors.  There are plenty of great companies out there that can help you for a minimum fee.
