I have a subcontractor that I both entered "Bills" for, and just wrote a "Check" for. Only the bill payments are showing up for 1099 reporting. Why aren't the checks?

Thank you for reaching out to the Community, @cgrowe1.

Let me help and provide insight into why the checks are not showing up in your 1099 report in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

To begin with, let's verify the check and review if it includes the following terms in the check number field will be excluded: Debit, Debit card, DBT, DBT card, DCard, Debit cd, Visa, Masterc, MC, MCard, Chase, Discover, Diners, Paypal. For more detailed information on which payments should be excluded, refer to this article: Understand which payments are excluded from a 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC.

After verifying your check, you will need to make edits to ensure it qualifies for 1099 before running the report again.

I'll also add this article for future guidance in customizing your reports and focus on the details that matter the most to you: Customize reports in QuickBooks Online.

Don't hesitate to leave a comment below if you have follow-up questions about running the 1099 report, checks, or other QBO-related concerns. I will answer them in any possible way.
