I cannot figure out how to adjust the print alignment for a 1099-NEC within QBO.  I've read and applied everything I can find without any improvement, including the Print Setup within Print Checks.  Please advise.

Welcome to the Community space, @Nicole73.

 

I recognize the importance of adjusting the print alignment of the 1099 and when printing checks within QuickBooks Online (QBO). I'll be sharing some insights about it.

 

Intuit has updated the filings of the 1099. The changes made are the 1099 print settings were removed, and the adjustment of print alignment for 1099s through browser settings.

 

With regards to the print setup in printing checks, we have an ongoing investigation about the check alignment that won't change when printing checks in QBO.

 

Moreover, to ensure you'll get an update about the resolution status, I recommend contacting our QuickBooks Support Team. This way, they can add your company file to the list of affected users.

 

To reach them, you can follow the steps below:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Click the Help button.
  3. In the QuickBooks Assistance chat box, select Talk to a human and or tap the Contact Us button at the bottom.
  4. Then, type in your reason for contacting us in the What can we help you with? Box and click Continue.
  5. From there, choose a way to connect with us; either to Chat with us, get a Callback, or call our support line directly by getting our Phone number.

 

Moreover, I'm adding these helpful articles as your reference in setting up your print settings and how to track your payables in QuickBooks:

I have quick books online. 

Your message is telling me that quickbooks REMOVED the ability to adjust printing for 1099s! 

I have now wasted 3 hours following intuit directions for alignment (only options are aligning checks or W2). NONE of your suggestions work. 

Seriously. This is unacceptable to not have an alignment option.

Now what?!

I hear your sentiments, @kathymast.

 

As per checking, there are many changes to the 1099 process for tax year 2023, which includes the unavailability of print settings in QuickBooks Online (QBO). I understand how this option is convenient for you when printing 1099 forms. Don't worry. I'll help you relay your valuable insight to our software engineers, so they can review your suggestion and consider bringing it back in our future product updates. To do that:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Select Feedback.
  3. Enter your recommendations, then click Next.

 

Moreover, you can run 1099 reports in QBO to identify who needs 1099s and display their payment totals.
