We have filed 1099's and one was incorrect how do we correct and contact IRS. it was efiled but we havent sent out our information yet

I'm here to provide insights about 1099s, irene17.

 

Once you e-file the 1099 form, you can no longer make corrections. What you can do is print a new paper form to amend it. IRS requires pre-printed forms, and you can order them.

 

  1. Fill out the 1099 form.
  2. Select the Corrected checkbox.
  3. Mail the corrected form to the IRS and your contractor.

 

For instructions on correcting your 1099s, please refer to this Tax1099 article: What Kinds of Corrections can I Make to 1099 Forms After they Have Been Submitted?.

 

I also suggest using these IRS instructions when working directly with the IRS to make a manual amendment to your 1099 forms.

 

To learn more about how 1099 works in QuickBooks, please see this article: Common Questions About 1099s.

 

Additionally, I've added an article that'll help you have a handy copy of the form: How do I Print my 1099 Forms?.

 

If you have other concerns or questions about 1099, just let me know by clicking the Reply button. I'll be glad to lend a hand.

We did not file online, but mailed the forms to the IRS. Unfortunately, one person should not have received a 1099 NEC at all. We need to correct his 1099 NEC to show $0.

How do we correct this issue in QB Online? We will mail the corrected forms to the IRS.
