Hello there, userspecialtycleanin.
I understand you want to ensure that your vendors and contractors receive their 1099 copies directly from QuickBooks. Allow me to share some thoughts about it.
Yes, QuickBooks sends a copy if you give them access to their 1099 online. When going through the 1099 e-filing process, you can select the delivery method for the vendor/contractor copies. That means, that if you choose the option to provide online access, QuickBooks will make the 1099 forms available to the vendors/contractors once the IRS accepts the e-filing.
With that, I recommend verifying the contractor's email in each profile to ensure they receive their 1099s. If the email is correct, they should be able to access their 1099 copies online after the IRS accepts it.
Here's how to check the status of your filings:
- Go to Taxes.
- Select 1099 filings.
- View the status of the e-filing under Filing status. Below is the list of statuses and what they mean:
- Not Submitted: You haven't e-filed Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC with the IRS. You can continue revising it.
- Submitted: You have e-filed the form to the IRS. Note: If you need to revise it, you may need to file a manual amendment. Use these IRS instructions and forms to do so.
- Received by IRS: The IRS has received your form and is either processing it or has already processed and approved it. Customers who have submitted their 1099 E-File forms will receive a confirmation email approximately a week after the IRS accepts and confirms submissions. You may not receive this confirmation until the middle of January or later.
Otherwise, if the email is incorrect and you haven't e-filed it yet, you can update their email first, go back to the e-filing process, and then submit it afterward. If you already e-filed it to the IRS, you can update it so that moving forward they'll be able to access their copies in the next 1099 filing. Then, go to your 1099 filings and print or email a PDF copy to your contractors. Here's an article for your convenience: Print your 1099 and 1096 forms.
