How do I get the form to prefill the State with ID number to print when I do 1099 forms.  I live in Wisconsin so it is mandatory.  Thank you.

Hi @Lynndr1,

 

Currently, there isn't an option to automatically pre-fill your 1099 Misc forms with the State ID number.

 

With this, you'll have to manually enter them when you prepare and file your 1099 Misc form. Here's how:

  1. Go to Edit.
  2. Select Preferences.
  3. Choose Tax: 1099.
  4. Under the Company Preferences tab, select click here from the option asking If you're ready to prepare your 1099s.
  5. Click Get Started.
  6. Hit Continue.
  7. Choose whether you manually or electronically file your 1099s.
  8. Click Save & Close.

Once done, you can now prepare and file your 1099 Misc form including your state ID number.

 

For your reference, I've included a screenshot below and a guide in preparing and filing your 1099 Misc form.

 

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions about 1099s in the comment section below. I'll be always around to help you out.

Hi!  I thought I would find a solution here.  Unfortunately, I enter our WI Withholding account into each 1099 form, as you advised and illustrated, however, the number is not printing into the "Account number (see instructions)" field.  Is there another work-around?

Hello @muravich! Thanks for reaching out to the Community about your 1099 form. Since those steps didn't work for you, I'd suggest contacting support directly. That way they can look with you in your account and figure out why that field isn't populating. Here are those steps:

  1. Open QuickBooks.
  2. Go to Help, then select QuickBooks Desktop Help.
  3. Select Contact Us.
  4. Give a brief description of your issue, then select Let's talk and then choose a way to connect.

If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to reply to this chat. All of us here in the Community are happy to help. :)
