Hello there, jdremodelingpros.

 

QuickBooks Online only allows you to file your 1099 once. For updates or corrections, you can do it in a printed copy and manually sending it by mail to the IRS. You can file the amended form by following the steps below:

 

  1. Order 1099-NEC IRS forms online at IRS Online Ordering for Information Returns and Employer Returns.
  2. Fill out the 1099-NEC form and make sure to enter the correct Social Security Number.
  3. Tick the Corrected box.
  4. Once done, mail the form to the IRS.

Good day, @guaymas.

 

I'm here to provide some insights regarding the 1096 form and to guide you on how you can send a 1099 amendment.

 

QuickBooks Online allows you to file your 1099's electronically. However, amendments need to be done manually. You can print a copy and mail it 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 that 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.

 

On the other hand, I'd like to let you know that based to the IRS's most recent publication on Form 1096, those that file their 1099-MISC forms electronically (such as with Intuit's E-file service) do not need to submit a 1096.

 

For your reference, you can also check out this article for more information: E-file through the 1099 E-File Service.

 

Please keep in touch with me here should you have any additional questions, I want to ensure your success.  Take care!
