Can a student on F1-OPT receive 1099-NEC from employer and no other forms?
Is it okay for a student to receive form 1099-NEC and file taxes for an OPT employment as the company is not registered for payroll. Would this be an issue or in any way affect the F1 Status?

not sure if I understood ur question correctly but, if u received a 1099-NEC then you have to file taxes regardless! when the company issued the 1099 they efiled it with the IRS. so the IRS expect u to pay taxes on the money u received.

I’m not sure. My best advice would be to ask DSO.
