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?

      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? 

       

       


      Hello, liana fan.

       

      I'll definitely help you come up with a way to print the 1096 form for the state submission. 

       

      You can use a blank paper if you don't have the pre-printed 1096 form. However, if your state requires you to submit the form with a pre-printed paper, you'll want to order it before printing. 

       

      You can contact the IRS for the 1096 orders or you can purchase some from us. Click this link for the kit: https://intuitmarket.intuit.com/tax-forms/1096-forms.

       

      After getting the form or preparing the blank paper, you can start printing the form for submission. Do the same steps for the printing process.

       

      Make sure to select the 1096 form, then click the Print on a 1096 form button (you can do this with or without the pre-printed paper). 

       

       

      If you need reference on printing the 1096 form, you can check this article: Print a 1096 form.

       

      Do you need to file other forms manually? Or do you need to check how well your business is doing so far with reports? Our help articles can definitely guide you in accomplishing these tasks. Browse for one in our articles list page.

       

      Let me know if you have other tasks to accomplish in QuickBooks. I'd be glad to offer assistance again.

      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:
