Getting copy of IRS form 1096 when using e-file

I chose to use Intuit e-file for my 1099s this year and have copies of the 1099s but did not see the 1096. Is it not needed when e-filing?

    Hi there, @dasteele42.

     

    I have just the clarification you're looking for. According to the IRS's most recent publication on Form 1096, those that file their 1099-MISC forms electronically (such as with Intuit's E-file service) do not need to submit a 1096. For more information regarding the service, please refer to our 1099's E-file FAQ here.

     

    Please keep in touch with me here should you have any additional questions, I want to ensure your success. Thanks for coming to the Community and take care.

      Thank you for the explanation. I just got worried about 1096 and posted a separate question. Still please confirm - State of California will also NOT require 1096 if I filed my 1099-misc from QB online?

      Hi, @KevinDiehl.

       

      Allow me to join the thread and help share information about filing Form 1096.

       

      Regardless of the state, you don't need to file Form 1096 once you've e-filed Form 1099 or as long as you're using the 1099 E-file Service.

       

      If your state requires you to send/file Form 1096, I recommend contacting you state for the filing instructions.

       

      Don't hesitate to add a comment below if you have any other concerns about filing forms. I'm always here to help!


      Is this still true for 2020?  I e filed my 1099-NEC using Intuit Online Payroll, but I don't see how to do the 1096 by myself since I cannot e-file. And now I can't do paper returns for the 1099-NEC because I already had Intuit do it.

      Let's get you a copy of the old 1099s, Latintax.

       

      I'd also like to ask if you e-filed the forms through QuickBooks? If so, you can follow these steps on how to access previously filed and archived tax forms: 

       

      1. Go to this link: https://iop.intuit.com/login/login.jsf?only1099=1. 
      2. Enter your Intuit login credentials. 
      3. Click Sign In. 
      4. Select View past forms page. 
      5. Print the form. that you need.

       

      You can also save these articles just in case you might need them at the end of the year:
