I have QB Desktop and utilize QB Online Payroll Core for all my payroll services. How do I process 1099 information with QB Online Payroll Core?

Not to worry, eileen18. You've got me here to help you show the steps in preparing 1099 for QuickBooks Online.

You can process your 1099 by going to the Vendors page. I'll guide you how:

1. From the left navigation panel, select Expenses > Vendors.
2. Click Prepare 1099s.
3. Click on Continue 1099s.
4. Ensure your company name, address, and tax ID are correct and match what's found on tax notices or letters from the IRS.
5. Select the boxes that represent the type of payments made to all of your contractors this year, then select Next. Important: There are changes to the 1099 forms and boxes, so choose your boxes carefully. Most businesses will choose “Nonemployee compensation (Box 1 1099-NEC)”, but check with your accountant if you think you might have made other types of payments.
6. Verify that all of your contractors show up and their personal info and email addresses are correct.
7. Review the payment totals for each box you selected in step 4. The payments will be automatically separated between the 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC forms. Select Next.
   • Note: You won't see payments that you made electronically to contractors (such as by credit card, etc.). This is because these are reported for you by the credit card company, bank, etc. If you don’t see all of the payments you expect, you can verify the year and threshold just above the Name column.
8. Select E-File for me to e-file your 1099s. Or select I’ll file myself to print and mail the forms yourself.
