Question

Vendor submitted 1099 under personal information, when it should have been reported under his business info. We now need to submit a corrected 1099 form as $0, but how?

QuickBooks won't let us submit a corrected 1099 amount as $0. We moved all payments from his personal info to his business info, and when we clicked on "correct", QuickBooks didn't recognize the changed amount for the vendor. How do we fix this electronically?

Hello there, angelina. I recognize you need to submit a corrected 1099 form with a $0 amount within QuickBooks Online. However, it sounds like you're encountering a common issue with QuickBooks. 

 

If you've already changed the payment information for the vendor and are e-filing the 1099 form again, you typically wouldn't need to change the amount to $0. Simply ensure that the corrected payment information is accurate and submit the form electronically.

 

Furthermore, we don't facilitate the correction of 1099 forms for inaccurate company names or company IDs. You will need to send a letter to the IRS. In the letter, include the relevant details such as the correct company name and company ID, along with an explanation of the error. You can refer to this article and scroll down to what type of corrections are not supported?
