Question

Does anyone know how to print a 1099 from a previous year on QBO? I need to print a 1099 from 2019. Trying also to locate the account number for that 1099 form.

Noticed an error on the 2019 form and I need to send a corrected form to the IRS, but I need to include the account number that appeared in the bottom left-hand corner (if there was one).

Let me guide you to print your prior 1099 form in QuickBooks Onlne (QBO), userdanielle1.

 

When printing your previous 1099 forms, it depends on how you submitted them. If you've filed your 1099 form electronically, you can follow the steps below to print the 1099 form for 2019: 

  1. Go to the 1099 E-File Service login page.
  2. Enter your User ID, Password, then click Sign In.
  3. Select the company that you've signed up for the E-File service.
  4. Click the Download and print copies for your records hyperlink.
  5. On the Download Your 1099 Forms page, click the Download link.
  6. Continue with the process to successfully download the form.

If you submitted them manually, here's how you can pull them up:

  1. Go to Expenses from the left menu.
  2. Select Vendors.
  3. Choose Prepare 1099s and click Continue your 1099s.
  4. Hit Next until you're on the Check that the payments add up page.
  5. Choose the filter menu (funnel icon) in the top-left of your Contractor list, select 2018 or 2019, and click Finish preparing 1099s.
  6. Tap  I'll file myself.
  7. Pick 1099, then 2019 under Tax Year.
  8. Hit Yes, that looks good! and select 1099, then 2019.
  9. Press Print on 1099 forms.

For more details about this one, see the Prepare and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online article. Just in case you encounter issues with submitting 1099, check out the Troubleshoot common 1099 issues article to fix it. To make the corrections, we need to send it by mail to the IRS. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Expenses tab on the left-hand menu, then Vendors.
  2. Click Prepare 1099s. Make sure all details are correct and select Print and mail.
  3. Choose the 1096 form, then Yes, looks good!
  4. Hit Print on a 1096 Form.
  5. Once finished, manually tick the Corrected box.

There's no deadline to file the corrected 1099-MISC. Although, it must be filed as soon as the error was discovered. To include the account number on 1099, it would be best to contact our Customer Support Team to check this one on their end.

 

I'd like to know how you get on after trying the steps, as I want to ensure this is resolved for you. Feel free to reply to this post and I'll get back to you. Take care always.

Thank you for the steps, but unfortunately, when I get to the review screen I do not see a filter option to change the year.

I appreciate the steps you've performed, userdanielle1. 

 

I can share some information regarding printing 1099 from prior years. At this time, we're unable to generate the forms in QBO. As mentioned by my colleague above, if you e-filed via E-service, copies of the prior 1099's are available there. If you haven't and aren't able to save a PDF copy, a custom report will be required and, 1099 will be manually filled out. 

 

Let's run the Transaction List by Vendor report and customize it to get the information we need.

 

Here are the steps:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu.
  2. In the Find report by name, enter Transaction List by Vendor.
  3. Filter for only Vendors subject to 1099's
  4. Filter for only 1099 accounts
  5. Group the report by Vendor.
  6. Print the correct 1099 Tax Year form from the IRS.
    >  https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1099msc--2019.pdf
  7. Manually fill out the form.

That should do it! If I can be of any additional assistance, please let me know. I'll be around to keep helping.
