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?

I'm here to clear things out for you about 1096s, @LeeAnna.

Form 1096 is a single transmittal form that reports all payments made to all your contractors. After you e-file, the summary form (1096) is automatically transmitted. It's basically an index or a list of the 1099s that are included in the filing.

Yes, Charies_M is right. You no longer need to submit one if you use Intuit's E-file service in filing your 1099s.

I'll personally notify Mark_R and Rea_M so they'll update their answers, so it'll not cause any confusion.

You can always check this article for more information: Print a 1096 form.

Hello,

I am having the same question as some of the other users are having.

Please read the following carefully as this is the reason I am looking for the 1096. California requires the 1096 when submitting the 1099s to them, which they require.

I efiled with Quickbooks and there was no 1096 provided because as you say above, it is not necessary for filing with the IRS. When I click on print and mail to obtain the 1096, it needs to be printed on a 1096 form, which I did not purchase because I e-filed with QB. Can you please tell me how to print out a 1096 form for this?
