I have QuickBooks self-employed and I need to create 1099 forms for my contractors. They are both individuals (SSN) and businesses (EIN). What should I do?

I'll help you send your 1099s to the IRS, @springsbarb.

QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) helps track your income, expenses, mileage, and tax info. However, creating 1099 forms for your contractors inside the program is unavailable.

 

Although, you can sign up to our E-file service (standalone) website. This way, you can add your contractor's details and file their 1099-MISC forms to the IRS.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the 1099 E-File Service page, select Start for Free.
  2. Enter your email address and select No, I'll enter my 1099 data. Then, click Continue.
  3. If the email address you entered does not yet have an Intuit account, you will go through the standard process of creating an Intuit Account, and then select Sign Up.
  4. After you click Sign Up, you will see this screen.
  5. If your email address already has an associated Intuit account, you will go through the standard sign-in process and select your company from there.

 

You can also check our 1099 E-file service fees on this link: http://payroll.intuit.com/additional-services/1099/efile-1099/.

I'm still here if you have other questions in regards to filing taxes. Just post your questions here, I'll respond as soon as possible. Have a good day.

Thanks so much @ReymondO ! This is exactly what I was looking for. I appreciate your time!

Thanks for joining the thread, @rvrekhi.

 

Let me help you send your 1099s to the IRS. 

 

Sometimes local internet cache files stored in the web can cause unexpected behavior when signing up. This can be the reason why your Intuit email isn't recognized when filling the form. 

 

To isolate the issue, try opening the link in a private window. This browser doesn't save your local logins and password. Simply press the following shortcut keys to access this mode. 

 

  • Ctrl + Shift + N (Google Chrome).
  • Ctrl + Shift + P (Firefox).
  • Control + Option + P (Safari).

 

Once you're on the web, copy and open this link: https://iop.intuit.com/1099efile/signup.jsp?_ga=2.256823051.1042246564.1641251357-388741832.1640651498

 

Enter your information and check if you're able to create the account. If yes, go back to your regular browser and clear its cache. If you're still getting the same result, use another supported browser. The issue might steam from the browser itself. 

 

If the issue persists, create another Intuit account. Simply go to this link to set up a new one: https://accounts.intuit.com/signup.html

 

This way, you can start a fresh account and enter your 1099-MISC information. Then, print or email copies to your contractors and e-file it with the IRS.

I'm working on submitting information for the 1099 and its asking for a Federal TIN.  I'm a sole proprietor and don't have a TIN.  The form doesn't accept my SSN.  How should I proceed?   ... but it works when I use the dashes.  All good now.  Thanks.
