Understanding Incentive Program Tax Information
Goodyear values the contributions of its certified Tire Experts and offers incentive programs to reward their dedication.

This form will be provided by January 31st of the following year to assist with income tax preparation. For any specific questions regarding your 1099 Income Tax form, it is always recommended to consult with a qualified tax advisor. Goodyear prioritizes the privacy and protection of personal information, utilizing secure third-party services to manage reward processing and ensure data encryption.
Maintaining Program Integrity and Fair Participation
To ensure the integrity of the Goodyear incentive programs and maintain fairness for all participants, it is crucial to adhere to program guidelines. Submitting duplicate or fraudulent applications is strictly prohibited and may result in ineligibility for continued participation in incentive programs.
