A WebmasterWorld thread has almost 50 posts from Google AdSense publishers who have received duplicate 1099 forms. A 1099 form is a IRS form used to report earnings to the US government.
Google has confirmed in the thread that "some publishers received duplicate 1099 forms." But they assure the publishers that their "earnings won't be reported to the IRS twice."
AdSenseAdvisor apologized for stressing some publishers out over this and afford further assistance.

I personally only received one 1099 form, that I am aware of.
