after submission of 1099 to IRS client came back stating that he need to correct 1099 like need to change tin number, recipients name. What can be the better option to correct 1099? Can we create a new 1099 and void the incorrect 1099? then submit to IRS? 

    Best answer by Rose-A

    I'd be glad to help and provide you some information regarding correcting 1099 in QuickBooks, dubeysai.

     

    At this time, QuickBooks Online only allows you to file your 1099 once. However, any updates or corrections can be made in a printed copy and sent in by mail to the IRS.

     

    Here's how to file the amended form:

     

    1. Order 1099-NEC IRS forms online at IRS Online Ordering for Information Returns and Employer Returns or over the phone at 800-829-3676.
    2. Fill out the 1099-NEC form and be sure to select the Corrected checkbox.
    3. Once done, mail the form to the IRS.
    4. After that, mail the recipient copy to your contractor as soon as possible so that they can file their taxes.

     

    Please refer to the IRS general Instructions for Certain Information Returns for the information you'll need to prepare. Additionally, you can visit this link for more details about this process: How to correct or change 1099s in QuickBooks

     

    In case you need help with printing your 1099s, here's an article for your reference: Create and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online. On the same link, you'll find the steps on how to E-file your forms as well as a guide on how to check the filing status.

     

    I want to make sure your concern is fully addressed and I'm here to provide further assistance if you have any other 1099 questions or QuickBooks related concerns. Have a great rest of the week!

      Thank you very much @ RoseMarjorieA. It helped me. However I still need some more help to complete this issue.

      Can we print 1099 NEC copy A from Quick books and mail that copy to IRS or are we required to order copy A from the IRS website?

       

      Thank you for your help.

      Hello there, @dubeysai.

       

      You can reprint a copy of 1099 NEC copy A if you use QuickBooks in e-filing your 1099 forms. However, if you file your 1099 NEC outside QuickBooks you'd want to secure a preprinted form and use it when reprinting your 1099 NEC copy A. Here's how:

      1. Purchase your 1099 Kit  
      2. Prepare your 1099s in QuickBooks.
      3. When complete, choose the Print and mail option.
      4. Check if the forms align properly by selecting Print sample on blank paper.
        • If it doesn't look good, close the page and proceed to step 5. If it looks good, select Print then Print again.
        • If the alignment is not correct, choose No, it doesn't line up.
      5. Align the form using the Horizontal and Vertical field. Once done, choose Print another sample on blank paper.
      6. Choose Print, then Print again.
      7. Mail copies to your contractors by the IRS delivery deadline. 

         

      On the other hand, since you have to make necessary changes to your client's 1099 form, you'd want to work directly with the IRS to make a manual amendment to their 1099 form. You can refer to this IRS article for the step-by-steps in instructions in preparing your 1099 forms: Form 1099-NEC - Internal Revenue Service.

      Further clarification on this issue.  One of my vendors claims that he doesn't want 1099 issued in his personal name with SSN, which was already submitted to IRS.  He wants 1099 to his company using his TIN.  Do I need to file a corrected 1099 for the original showing zero amount and then a corrected to the new company name?

      Let me point you in the right direction for handling your 1099 concern, Deanna70.

       

      When you file your 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC forms through our 1099 service and need to process a correction, you'll have to work directly with the IRS to make a manual amendment. They can discuss details about the process, especially the amount and name you'll have to enter on the 1099 form.

       

      Once you have the updated tax return, make sure to give one to the recipient. The following articles go into detail about the process:

        I had the same problem and got the paper copies to correct the 1099 and filled out a 1096.  I am in Kansas and looking online I see that I need to send a corrected copy to the state.  But I am not sure where to send this or if it needs a cover like the 1096 for the IRS.  Can anyone tell me where to send the 1099 to Kansas and if there is another form that needs to be filled out?

        Hello there, @info-henforparen.

         

        I'll gladly share some insights about filing state 1099s in QuickBooks Online (QBO), so you can send your forms accordingly.

         

        Filing state 1099s isn't supported in QBO. For your state, you'll have to send your 1099s to the Kansas Department of Revenue. With this, I encourage you to contact them directly on how to file and verify what other forms you need to fill out.

         

        If you wish to access your state agency website, please see this article: Payroll Tax Compliance.

         

        Also, you may want to check out this page to answer the most commonly asked questions about Kansas 1099s: Kansas Department of Revenue 1099 Frequently Asked Questions.

         

        Please don't hesitate to let me know in the comments below if you have other 1099 concerns in QBO. I'm always around to help. Take care, and I wish you continued success, @info-henforparen.

        Its funny how a smaller company like Track 1099 allows to correct the 1099's online with click of a button and a company like Intuit tells us to go print and file with IRS manually.

        This is a very common problem and Intuit should be providing this feature for the huge fee they charge for their software.
