Getting copy of IRS form 1096 when using e-file

I chose to use Intuit e-file for my 1099s this year and have copies of the 1099s but did not see the 1096. Is it not needed when e-filing?

    Hi there, @dasteele42.

     

    I have just the clarification you're looking for. According to the IRS's most recent publication on Form 1096, those that file their 1099-MISC forms electronically (such as with Intuit's E-file service) do not need to submit a 1096. For more information regarding the service, please refer to our 1099's E-file FAQ here.

     

    Please keep in touch with me here should you have any additional questions, I want to ensure your success. Thanks for coming to the Community and take care.

      Thank you for the explanation. I just got worried about 1096 and posted a separate question. Still please confirm - State of California will also NOT require 1096 if I filed my 1099-misc from QB online?

      Thanks for getting back to us, @purchase order.

       

      Allow me to chime in for a moment and provide some additional information about filing 1099/1096 in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

       

      Yes! Regardless of the state, as long as you're using our 1099 E-file Service, you don't need to file Form 1096.

       

      For your reference, you can also check out this article for more information: E-file through the 1099 E-File Service.

       

      That should answer your concern for today. Please let me know in the comment section if you have any follow-up questions. I'm always here to help. Have a wonderful weekend.

        Let's get you a copy of the old 1099s, Latintax.

         

        I'd also like to ask if you e-filed the forms through QuickBooks? If so, you can follow these steps on how to access previously filed and archived tax forms: 

         

        1. Go to this link: https://iop.intuit.com/login/login.jsf?only1099=1. 
        2. Enter your Intuit login credentials. 
        3. Click Sign In. 
        4. Select View past forms page. 
        5. Print the form. that you need.

         

        You can also save these articles just in case you might need them at the end of the year:
