File your state 1099 forms

by Intuit•1425• Updated 2 days ago

QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Contractor Payments supports filing the 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC forms in states that in states that participate in the Combined Federal/State Filing (CFSF) program and don't have withholding-based filing requirements.

A person paying another person. If you'd like to pay your contractors and file your 1099s directly through QuickBooks, consider adding Contractor Payments. If you have both employees and contractors, add QuickBooks Online Payroll.

How we file state 1099s

When you submit your 1099 forms, we’ll forward them to the IRS. The IRS will then send the info on the 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC forms to the states that participate in the Combined Federal/State Filing (CFSF) program and don't have withholding-based filing requirements.

  • Some states still require you to submit these forms directly to their agency. If that's the case, we'll give you the info you need to complete the process yourself.
  • Your state may have additional requirements for you to file 1099s based on your business location. Refer to the details below.

Note: QuickBooks doesn't currently support:

  • E-filing for states that require direct filing outside of the CFSF program.
  • E-filing for states where there is state tax withholding.
  • E-filing when the state threshold is below the federal threshold.
  • Multi-state e-filing.

States not supported

QuickBooks doesn’t support e-filing for the following situations:

  • Efiling for states that require direct filing outside Combined Federal/State Filing (CFSF) program,
  • Efiling for states when there's state tax withholding
  • Efiling when the state threshold is below federal threshold, 
  • Multi-state e-filing. 

You are responsible for understanding your state's requirements. If you have questions, check directly with your state.

Determine your filing requirements

Your state may have additional requirements for filing 1099s based on your business location. QuickBooks uses the vendor or contractor’s W-9 address to determine the filing state and applies rules accordingly.

Use this table to find out which states are supported and you can file through QuickBooks Online. In other states, you'll have to file directly with their agency.

* QuickBooks doesn't currently support e-filing with state tax withholding.
** Details for states that require direct filing are provided in the States partially or not supported table in the File your state 1099 forms article.
*** Massachusetts and Wisconsin both require state tax ID in the 1099s forms. Because they both accept defaults (WI = 036888888888801, MA = EIN), we will automatically fill in the default IDs on your 1099 forms.  

Your state may have additional requirements for your 1099s based on your business location. If you pay vendors and contractors out of state, even if you have filed 1099s for their states through QuickBooks, you may have to submit additional filings to your state to stay compliant. Contact your state to find out more.
