Ensuring correct 1099 forms are used is essential for accurate reporting to the IRS, Castatz. Let's work together to file your corrected forms in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll.
To ensure the 1099-MISC will appear in the preview, let me guide you through the steps in e-filing your 1099 correction. Here's how:
- Go to the Taxes menu and proceed to the 1099 filings tab.
- Click the Correct button next to the form you want to fix.

Furthermore, too many temporary files on your browser's cache can cause malfunctions and missing data. Thus, I'd also recommend using a private or incognito browsing mode to start with a clean slate when using QBO. You can use the shortcut keys for the most common browsers below.
- Google Chrome: press Ctrl + Shift + N
- Mozilla Firefox: press Ctrl + Shift + P
- Microsoft Edge: press Ctrl + Shift + N
- Safari: press Command + Shift + N
