As I try to enter the 1099 for an employee/owner-it will not let me do it. It indicates TAX ID Missing.....I answered all the fields. Please help

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, alonzostrailer. 

It's important to ensure that all the necessary information is correctly entered into the owner's profile. Let's work together to resolve this issue so you can process the 1099 form smoothly.

The error indicates that the system doesn't recognize the taxpayer identification number (TIN) or there's no information entered in the following fields: Employer Identification Number and Social Security Number.

When you set up the employee/owner, select Individual-files taxes using a Social Security number (most common). QuickBooks Online (QBO) can identify if you'll have to use the Employer ID Number (EIN) and Taxpayer ID Number (TIN). It's essential to input the correct identification number to prevent any issues. 

This article gives a detailed explanation of when to use the Federal TIN and Federal EIN: What are EIN and TIN numbers?

 After updating your employee's setup, you can start processing the 1099 form. If you encounter any errors on the tax form after e-filing, refer to the troubleshooting steps outlined in this article: Correct or change 1099s in QuickBooks.
