How to submit additional 1099 for a contractor that I missed the first time?

There is conflicting information from QuickBooks team members in this thread.  One states you can only submit once in QBO, however you state here that "I can assure you that only one additional vendor will be re-submitted".  Which is it?  

 

My company already submitted 1099's on QBO.  I was just notified we missed someone and need to file that.  Is that possible in QBO or not?

I can help provide clarifications about filing another 1099 for your vendor, hquick.

 

Yes, you can submit another tax return in QuickBooks Online (QBO). Let's make sure you've already added the supplier to the company and marked it as eligible for 1099.

 

If everything is in order, simply repeat the processes you took for the first batch of submitted tax forms. Here's how:

 

  1. In your company, go to the Expenses menu on the left panel and choose Vendors.
  2. In the right corner of your screen, click the Prepare 1099s button to open the Get ready to file your 1099 forms.
  3. From there, click the Continue your 1099s button to open the Prepare 1099s screen.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.

 

This guide explains in detail how to prepare and file tax returns: Create and file 1099s with QuickBooks Online. There, you'll learn whether you can submit an additional batch of 1099s as well as details on how to handle a correction.

 

You can follow the directions in the following resources if you need to add a contractor, change the amounts on your 1099s, or prepare an amended form:

How to submit additional 1099 for a contractor that I missed the first time?

So this was helpful and I was able to add 2 contractors that I missed and send them their stuff. 

I filed with the IRS the first time before adding the other 2, so is there something else that I need to do or do I need to file again? Thanks for any help!

Thank you for joining the thread for completing the 1099 filing process for your vendors in QuickBooks Online. Your attention to this task ensures compliance and accuracy in your financial records. I'll share information that could help you.

 

As all the 1099 forms for your vendors have been successfully filed, there are no additional filings required.

 

Instead, you want to check the status of your filed 1099 forms and ensure everything is in order. In QuickBooks Online, you can view the status of your e-filed 1099 in the Filing status tab. It can either be one of the following:

 

  • Not Submitted: You haven't e-filed the forms with the IRS. Thus, you can keep revising it as needed.
  • Submitted: You have e-filed the form to the IRS. It can also be marked as Sent on your screen. If you need to modify it, you can file a manual amendment.
  • Received by IRS: The IRS has received your form. They could be currently processing it or have already approved it. You'll receive an email confirmation approximately a week after the IRS accepts and confirms submissions.

 

I'm adding these articles you can use in the future:

 

 

If you have any concerns or questions about the filing process, you can explore the QuickBooks Help Center, review FAQs, or post them here in the forum. I'll be sure to answer them ASAP! Stay safe!

How to submit additional 1099 for a contractor that I missed the first time?

When I get to the screen that lists all the contractors, do I uncheck the other contractors that I have already filed?  I completed all the others before the deadline, but didn't realize I had not set up one contractor for a 1099.  Is it too late to efile this one?

I appreciate you following this thread, Michelle.

 

I'm here to offer assistance with your query regarding the 1099 concerns.

 

Yes, you can uncheck the previously filed 1099 contractors. And for the one that has not yet filed, the system will allow you to do it up until April 30. Any forms filed after the said date have to be done manually. 

 

While you can still file the form electronically, the IRS will consider it late. I would recommend contacting their support to determine the fees.

 

For reference about filing the 1099 forms, you can check this article: Create and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online

 

Please don't hesitate to post again if you need further help with the 1099 processes. I'll be sure to get back to you.
