Question

1099 e-file

I noticed that QB online Payroll includes free 1099 e-filing. If we choose to e-file 1099 forms, QB will print and mail forms to contractors for free. Correct? Or is there an additional charge for that?

Thank you.

Hi there @Kortni BL.

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Community regarding the 1099 delivery options. I’m happy to give you some additional information.

When you file 1099’s, all contractors with email addresses will receive an invite to access their 1099 forms online. The option to print and mail 1099’s will be available. Depending on which QuickBooks payroll product you are using, you will either have the option to print and mail those yourself, or QuickBooks will do that for you.

If you have any additional questions about 1099 filing or delivery, simply reply to this thread. Feel free to reach out any time you have a question about your QuickBooks or payroll. We’re always happy to help!

Thank you, Monica.

We have QB Online Payroll Core. What options do we have for printing and delivering 1099 to contractors? And how much does it cost?

Hello, Kortni BL.

 

Thanks for getting back to us! I'd like to elaborate more on the 1099 fees and other details with the payroll service. 

 

There is a fee for filing the 1099 forms with your current subscription. However, you'll be able to file unlimited forms with it. 

 

There might be a change with the associated fees, so I'd recommend contacting our agents to know the fee breakdown. We're unable to check billing details here, but our phone agents can. 

 

Here's how to contact them: 

 

  1. Click the Help icon.
  2. Select Talk to a human (or type it in the chat box).
  3. When asked, enter "breakdown of the 1099 fees" in the chat box. 
  4. Choose I still need a human.
  5. Click the Get help from a human link.
  6. Select either the phone or chat option. 

 

Regarding the printing and delivering the forms, we'll automatically send them to your contractors. Printing and mailing can also be done with your subscription using our 1099 E-file service website.

 

Our 1099 E-file service portal can be accessed here: 1099 E-file service website

 

I'd recommend reading this article if you'd like to know more about the 1099 E-file services: 

 

 

Have you run payroll and want to check the current liabilities and other payroll data? There are a bunch of reports you can run in QuickBooks. Check out this article for a guide: Run payroll reports.

 

Do you have more questions about other tax forms in QuickBooks? Please let me know and I'll get back to you with the details.

I have used 1099 e-file in the past with no problems. This year, when I try to log in to pay the $12.99 fee and to file, the sign in just loops over and over and never moves to the next step. I've tried logging out and trying again and that doesn't work.

Thanks for posting this here in the Community, @galen95959. Allow me to help you with your concern.

 

When a user has issues with QBO that appear to be browser-related, we recommend clearing their cache. Temporary internet files speed up loading, but too many can slow things down.

 

To perform the browser troubleshooting, these are the steps:

  1.  Restart your browser.
  2. Use other browser like Incognito.
  3. Clear your browser’s cache and browsing history.

 

You can also use other compatible browsers.

 

Always know that you are welcome to post here again if you have any QuickBooks related questions. It’ll be my pleasure to help you sort those out. Keep safe!
