  • An owner must accumulate a minimum balance in their account of $100 for a check to be issued. Your check minimum can be lowered to $25 upon request. Note that we have a Minimum Release each year in October to all accounts with a balance of at least $10.

  • Royalty payments may be suspended until certain conditions are satisfied. Generally, royalty payments may be suspended for reasons such as a missing Tax ID, incorrect address, assignment of interest, notice of death, lack of documentation/title confirming ownership, or disputes involving proper apportionment or ownership of interests in the mineral, royalty or leasehold ownership being produced.

    Amounts due are accumulated and released when a resolution has been reached and all related documents have been received and processed. All payments are retroactive to the date of suspension.

  • Your 1099 Miscellaneous Tax forms will be mailed no later than January 31st. If the January 31st falls on Saturday or Sunday, the IRS allows for mailing the following Monday.

  • As required by the IRS, the 1099 shows the gross amount prior to taxes and other deductions. If you have questions as to how this information should be presented on your tax return, please contact a tax professional.
