I submitted my 1099-NECs for successfully but realized that I missed one person (because her account was not included in the account list).  How do I go about submitting that one person?

Congratulation on successfully submitting your 1099-NECs in QuickBooks Online. I'm here to ensure that you'll be able to submit another 1099 of your contractor. 

 

First, you'll need to add your contractor in QuickBooks Online to be able to include her account in the list. I'll guide you on how to do it:  

 

 

  1. Click the Payroll, then Add a contractor
  2. Enter the Name and Email.  
  3. Mark check the box and press Add contractor

 

 

 

 Second, let's create your 1099s in QuickBooks Online. You can refer to this article for more detailed steps and information on how to create and e-file it: Create and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online.

Thanks AileneA ,

To clarify, am I correct that you're saying I just need to follow the normal steps of submitting 1099s and QBO will be smart enough to know that I'm just adding a new contractor?  In other words, same exact procedure as what I do to begin with?

I need to file a 1099 that I missed after filing already.  Ive added contractor.  Followed the 1099 procedure Company/Accounts/Contractors/Review.  Upon completion, the pop up window states your 1099s are ready to file.  It does not progress to pay method etc.  How do I get to the next step Payment then actual filing?

Thanks for following this thread, @Tempest. I'll be your QuickBooks guide today. 

 

Since your 1099 has already been filed, you will need to manually amend it and work directly with the IRS. You can use these IRS instructions to do so.

 

For further information, see Correct errors on Forms 1099-MISC

 

Once corrected, you will need to provide the corrected return to the recipient or contractor yourself.

 

I'll be here if you need more help. Take care!

When I get to the screen that lists all the contractors, do I uncheck the other contractors that I have already filed?  I completed all the others before the deadline, but didn't realize I had not set up one contractor for a 1099.  Is it too late to efile this one?

I appreciate you following this thread, Michelle.

 

I'm here to offer assistance with your query regarding the 1099 concerns.

 

Yes, you can uncheck the previously filed 1099 contractors. And for the one that has not yet filed, the system will allow you to do it up until April 30. Any forms filed after the said date have to be done manually. 

 

While you can still file the form electronically, the IRS will consider it late. I would recommend contacting their support to determine the fees.

 

For reference about filing the 1099 forms, you can check this article: Create and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online

 

Please don't hesitate to post again if you need further help with the 1099 processes. I'll be sure to get back to you.
