1099 Filing

I do bookkeeping for 3 small companies.  I have 1 company that has enough 1099's that now require filing online.  The other 2 do not.  Is there a way to still create 1099's thru QB and create on blank paper to send to individuals?  Do they get emailed or is there a way to print and mail?  I've only purchased forms in the past and printed and mailed to both the IRS and individuals.

You can this app as the connector to use QuickBooks Online to file your W-2 and 1099-MISC forms. Simply create an account, import your data directly from QuickBooks, review your data and checkout. They'll file your forms to the IRS, applicable state agency and send copies to your recipients.

This doesn't answer the question...I had the same one. Can we send paper 1099s to recipients and efile to IRS? Will the Quickbooks program allow this?

Hi everyone,

 

Let me help you prepare and file Federal 1099s.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can purchase the 1099 kit to have an option to print and mail 1099s. 

 

To create and print 1099s, here's what you'll need to do:

 

  1. In the left menu, click Payroll.
  2. Select Contractors.
  3. Choose Prepare 1099s.
  4. When complete, choose the Print and mail instead option.
  5. Follow the on-screen steps to check your alignment and print your forms.

 

For more details on filing 1099s, see these articles:

Thank you. It is my understanding that the IRS is requiring those with more than 10 documents, to file to the IRS electronically.  Is that correct?

 

Those less than 10 have to be mailed.  Is that correct?  Can those be printed on blank paper or is a 1099 kit required?

 

The next question is, can I file the 1099's directly to the vendors directly thru QB?  Do you know the fee and is it per vendor?  Or can I print on blank paper and send to each vendor?  I thought the blank paper was an option and not a kit.

I believe I found part of my answer:

 

Intuit will fill your 1099's with the IRS and deliver copies to contractors at rates listed:

1 - 3 corms $3.99; 4-20 $3.19; 21+ $1.59 by January 15th. Rates increase on January 16th.

 

If you have Intuit Payroll, there are no fees.

 

Just to confirm, I can still submit less than 10 thru Intuit but can use paper if I wish.  Otherwise 10 or more is a must.
