Thanks for reaching out to the QuickBooks Support page, Steve.
I want to help you further with your 1099 processing in QuickBooks Online.
For now, you need to wait until the form is available in the program. The filing preparation for 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC begins Nov 7. While e-filing becomes available on January 1st.
If you need to file one early, you can reach out to the IRS or go to their website and manually fill out the 2021 1099-Form. You can get the data by pulling up vendor reports in the program.
However, if you want to wait, follow these steps to create the form once available:
- Go to the Payroll menu, then select Contractors. Or select Expenses and then Vendors.
- Select Prepare 1099s and then Let’s get started.
- Fill in all the needed information until you get to the last step for filing.
If you need the steps and information on how to create the 1099 form in QuickBooks, use the following link: Create and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online
Post here anytime if you have other questions or concerns about filing payroll forms in QuickBooks Online. I'll be more than happy to help you out.
