After you generate the 1099s in QB, how long does it take for them to be mailed to the recipient?  I generated 1099s on 1/6 and no one has received them yet.

I can provide you with some information about when your recipients will receive their Form 1099, @Lindagig. 

 

After you have prepared and e-filed your 1099s from your QuickBooks Online account, Intuit will deliver copies to your contractors at no extra charge. All 1099 forms will be mailed by January 31 to the contractor's residential address in their profile. If your contractor hasn't received their 1099 form within 7 business days after January 31, you may consider printing the form from the Taxes page after e-filing.

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to the Taxes menu and select 1099 filings. 
  2. From there, you can select View 1099 to view a PDF copy.

 

Refer to this article for more information about printing your 1099 and 1096 forms. 

 

In case you need to make corrections to 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC forms after you e-filed them, see this article for further guidance: Correct or change 1099s in QuickBooks.

 

Let me know if you need more information about 1099s. I'm always here to answer them for you. Have a wonderful day!

I E-filed 1099's for my client. The status shows "mailed" to recipient. I did not pay for Print & mail service. Can I assume that QBO will print & mail a 1099 to each recipient, or do I need to print and mail them myself for 2024? Has anything changed from last year? Last year they were mailed out as part of the Efile cost.

That's a good question, JAA99. Yes, the 1099 form will be sent to your recipients as it is included in the service. I can provide some additional information about our 1099 e-file services. 

 

The delivery of your 1099 forms depends a bit on the type of payroll subscription you have. With the Elite Payroll Subscription, there are a couple of convenient options for you. You can choose to have QuickBooks handle the printing and mailing of each form for a fee of $14.99 per form. Or, if you prefer, you can print and mail the 1099 forms yourself for just $4 per form. Both options are designed to make the process as smooth and flexible for you as possible.
