How do I print the 1099 forms on the 1099-NEC form in Quickbooks Premier Plus Edition 2021?

It's 1099 time.

 

How do I print the 1099-NEC forms in QB Premier Plus Edition 2021? I have five vendors I need to send the forms to. Do I put the forms in the printer as one Copy A, one Copy B, one Copy C, then repeat that five times or do I put in five of the Copy A pages, five of the Copy B pages, and five of the Copy C pages? Do I print out the 1099s one at a time or can I do it all at once?

 

Also, what about the 1096 form? When and how is that one printed out? Does the QB Premier Plus have the option for that? I haven't been able to find it. Will the option to print it out pop up automatically or will I have to scrounge up a typewriter and type in the information?

 

Also, can I reprint a 1099 if this doesn't work?

Help has arrived, @AC_Counting.

 

You've got me to assist you in printing your 1099 and 1096 forms in Quickbooks Premier Plus Edition 2021.

 

When printing the 1099 form you'll need to select the name of your five vendors, then print the forms all at once. Moreover, the process is just the same for the 1096 form. Just choose Print 1096's instead and start printing them.

 

To do that:

  1. Create your 1099s in QuickBooks.
  2. In the Choose a filing method window, select the Print 1099-NEC or Print 1099-MISC button.
  3. Specify the date range for the forms then choose OK.
  4. Select all vendors you wish to print 1099s for.
  5. Press on the Print 1099 button. Select Print 1096s instead, if printing form 1096. 
  6. Confirm your printer settings then select Print.

To give you complete details about printing your vendor's forms in QBDT, please see this link: Learn how to print 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC forms.

 

On the other hand, if you do't have the option to print the 1096 form, make sure to download the latest QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) and payroll tax table release to have the recent features and patches.

 

Please let me know if you have any other concerns about this or with QuickBooks. I'll be right here to provide further assistance. Have a lovely day!

Your example looks different from mine.I don't have just the desktop version. I have the Premier Plus Edition 2021. Also, these forms are going to vendors. The 1099s have nothing to do with Payroll. We don't use the Payroll on Quickbooks.

 

I haven't found a 1096 button to choose. It let me choose the 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC. We're using the 1099-NEC. There was nothing about the 1096.

 

However, how do I put the paperwork into the printer? Is it Copy A, Copy B, Copy C, then just repeat that five times? Or do I put in five pages of Copy A, five pages of Copy B, five pages of Copy C?

 

Also, if something goes wrong, can I reprint the 1099s on the 1099-NEC forms?

So after two hours on a chat room twice, both times the chat was dropped because the customer service person couldn't answer and then an hour on the phone with a customer service person who didn't know the answer and had to find it out, we finally have the answer -- Quickbooks prints out all the A copies first, then the B copies, then the C copies, and yes, they can be reprinted if necessary.

 

This is how it works:

Once you've gone through the Print/E-mail 1099 Forms program, you get the option to print out the forms. A Print Box will pop up. When you get to the Print Box, there are buttons you can click to print the 1099-NEC forms and the 1096 form.

 

You put the Copy A pages in the printer first and click on the Print 1099-NEC button.

Then you put the Copy B pages in the printer and click on the Print 1099-NEC button again.

Lastly, you put in the Copy C pages in the printer and click on the Print 1099-NEC button again.

If everything has printed out correctly, put the 1096 form in the printer and click on the Print 1096 button.

 

It prints out as all the A's, all the B's, all the C's. It does not print out as A, B, C, A, B, C, etc.

 

Yes, Quickbooks can reprint the 1099 forms if there is a problem and you need to run them again.This isn't one of the reports where you can print it one time only.

I just poked around and discovered that I had to go into the 1099 Misc and map all of its boxes to 'Omit'.  Then I was able to back up and go into 1099 NEC and it worked!  All printed - finally!
