Print 1096 Form?

I printed both the 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC forms in QB Desktop, but when I click on File > Print Forms > 1099s/1096, it takes me back to the Wizard again. See screenshot. I do not see where to print the 1096 forms to send to the IRS. I've never had an issue printing these before. I have done multiple searches and nothing is working. Please help! Thanks! Katrina

You'll have to go through the Wizard again to print your 1096 form in the system. The option should be available below the Print 1099 option.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Verify your 1099 details through QB Desktop 1099 wizard.
  2. In the wizard, at step 6, choose a filing method and click on Print 1099s. Read the message and click OK to get the print. Some tips to use while printing 1099
  3. Select the range (of date) the 1099s were paid from and click OK.
  4. Select the form 1099(s) you wish to print and click the Print 1096 button. 

 

I've also attached an article you can use to resolve printing issues in QuickBooks Desktop, as well as how to fix the problem using the QuickBooks Tool Hub: Troubleshoot PDF and Print problems with QuickBooks Desktop.

Print 1096 Form?

Is there a way to reprint a FORM 1096 - I have the 1099's however misplaced the copy of the FORM 1096 and now the auditor is requesting it from 2020.  I do not understand why QBO does not archive these forms like they do for payroll.  

Thanks,

Michelle

Hi, @MMcClure1.

 

Yes! there is and I'd be happy to show you on how to print those 1096 form in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

To print your previous year’s 1096 form, let me guide you on how:

  2. In the 1099 wizard that opens, click Get Started.
  3. Select your 1099 vendors and choose Continue, then verify your 1099 vendor's information, again, choose Continue.
  4. Map your accounts and edit thresholds if needed, then select Continue.
  5. Review payments for exclusions and select Continue when you're done.
  6. Confirm your 1099 entries after adjustments, if correct, select Continue.
  7. In the Choose a filing method screen, select the Print 1099s button.
  8. Specify the date range for the forms then choose OK.
  9. Select all vendors you wish to print 1096 for and choose the Print 1096 button.
  10. Confirm your printer settings then select Print.

This is more of a note to express my displeasure with Quickbooks Online. My company recently converted from QB Desktop to QBO. I have been working on 1099NEC all week. Literally! I only have 4 1099NEC to print and for 8 hours I tried to get forms to align. Nothing that was suggested worked. Over this last week. I have spoken to 5 QB representatives and not one of them was able to assist in this. 1 of them didn't even understand the concept of providing this information to the IRS. Finally I took the PDF doc and converted to a Word Doc and had to manipulate the information to accommodate the form. After accomplishing that fiasco I went to print a 1096 and THAT IS NOT AN OPTION!! Ridiculous!!! As I stated I only had 4 1099NEC to process so even filing electronically was not an option as the IRS requires at least 10. When we were in talks to purchase QBO the sales rep was specifically asked if 1099s could be printed. Oh absolutely we were told. Not ONE mention of printing 1096 was not available.  Right now I am incredibly annoyed with QBO and have nothing positive to say about this software.

Agreed, I spent an hour on the phone with the QB rep.  I have asked QBO through this communication why it is no longer allowing for the printing of Form 1096 for manually filing this year.  All replies from QBO have been avoiding the answer and simply stating a Form 1096 needs to be filled out and included for filing manually and that the IRS no longer requires a Form 1096 for filing electronically.  This does not solve the need to print the Form 1096 from QBO for filing manually.
