1099 Adj from 1099-NEC to 1099-MISC

It's good to have you here in the QuickBooks Community, @lorena-theteenpr.

I'd be glad to share some details on how to adjust 1099 filings.

If you've already filed your forms, you can submit amended 1099 forms through QuickBooks Online. However, as of this moment, we don't have specific instructions to do so. I recommend checking this article to verify from time to time if the accurate steps have been published: Correct or change 1099s in QuickBooks.

Once the instructions are provided, you can follow the steps below to ensure the correct box is selected:

1. Go to Payroll and then select Contractors.
2. Choose Prepare 1099s.
3. Make sure your company name, email, address, and tax ID are correct and match what's found on tax notices or letters from the IRS. Click Edit to make any changes.
4. Select Confirm info and get started.
5. Click Select accounts and choose or confirm the accounts used for your 1099 expenses or payments, then hit Add. 
6. Next to each account added, select the 1099-MISC boxes that represent the type of payments made to your contractors this year. Hit Next.
7. On the Tracked for 1099 tab, place a checkmark next to each contractor who should get a 1099. Make sure ‌the contractors' info and email addresses are correct. Select Edit to make any changes.
8. If a contractor is missing, select the Not tracked for 1099 tab. Select Add to tracked list to add the contractor to the Tracked for 1099 tab, then select Back.
9. Review the Reportable total amount for each contractor selected, then select Next.
10. Hit Preview to view each 1099 and review the amount in each box. Select Continue to 1099-MISCs to view your 1099-MISC forms. Select Next.
11. Once done, click Continue to E-File to e-file your 1099s. Or select I’ll print and mail to print and mail the forms yourself.

Moreover, see this article to learn how to submit your 1099s again if your form is rejected by the IRS: Fix rejected 1099 forms.

I'm more than willing to help if you have any other 1099 queries in QuickBooks Online. I'll ensure your needs are taken care of. 

Is there an update as to when this option is going to go live in quickbooks online.  Today is Feb 5th and it is still not open.  Needing to update my vendors on when they can expect updated 1099s.

Thanks!

Good day, @wcoryell. I'd be glad to share with you the steps on how to correct your filed 1099 NEC in QuickBooks. 

Since you've filed your 1099s in QuickBooks Online, you may be able to correct 1099s directly in your product. 

To start, ensure that that the IRS accepted your 1099s. To confirm:

1. Go to the 1099 filings tab
   1. QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Online Payroll: Go to Taxes, then 1099 filings.
   2. QuickBooks Contractor Payments only: Go to 1099 filings.
2. In the Status column, look for Accepted.

Once done, follow these steps to E-file your 1099 correction:

1. Go to the 1099 filings tab
   • QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Online Payroll: Go to Taxes, then 1099 filings.
   • QuickBooks Contractor Payments only: Go to 1099 filings.
2. Click Correct next to the form you want to fix. Please note that your business info must be the same as the original file accepted by IRS. If you’ve made changes since you filed, change them back.
3. The accounts and boxes you previously chose will appear. These are the accounts that represent the payments or expenses you paid to your contractors, and the corresponding 1099 box. To delete an account select Remove next to the row. To add or change an account select Select accounts.
4. If you want to change the 1099 box, select the dropdown ▼ next to the account and select the 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC box that represents the type of payments made to your contractors.
5. Select Next. If you make any changes to your accounts or 1099 boxes, you’ll get a message that other 1099 forms may also be affected. Check your other contractors' 1099 forms and fix if needed. Select Got it to continue.
6. Verify the Corrected total is what you expect. If the contractor payment total is now below the 1099 threshold, and they ‌no longer need a 1099, the Corrected total will be $0.00.
7. Check your contractors' personal info and email addresses. Select Edit ✎ to make any changes. Click Next.
8. Select Preview to view each corrected 1099. Click E-file corrected form twice.
