Let me share additional insights about the Send email or Send a reminder link, larceme.
Take note this option will only show if you haven't entered any personal information about the contractor. If you want your contractors to add their own 1099 tax details, you may need to deactivate them. Then, recreate their profile with the updated email address to resend the invite. You can follow the steps provided by my colleague, Angelyn_T to be guided in doing the process.
However, if you're still unable to view this option, I'd recommend performing some basic troubleshooting steps. There are times that the browser is full of frequently accessed page resources causing errors and missing interfaces in QuickBooks. You can start by accessing your account using a private browser. Here's how to open the window:
If you're able to send the invite successfully, you'd want to go back to your regular browser and then clear its cache. This will delete the accumulated site data and improve your browsing experience. You can also use other compatible browsers to further isolate the issue.
Additionally, here are some articles I've attached to help you manage your contractors:

I love how the people in the article tell you to contact support and then I contact support and they send me these articles, LOLOLOLOL. Just fix the issue!
This doesn't work. I've tried everything in this article including activate/ deactivate and it doesn't work. Why in the world has someone not prioritized this to the programming team? I don't understand why there wouldn't always be a button there to have them fill out details and/ or complete a 1099. Also, in this thread, you point out "updated email." What if the email address hasn't changed but you are just trying to resend the link from your less than average online accounting software? That isn't a solution!
It's my pleasure to assist you today,brown3009.

I contacted support and they were no help. They kept sending me links to these articles and finally waited me out on chat and disconnected the chat without a goodbye because they didn't have a solution. Super frustrating and I'll probably just end up switching to ADP.
Hi there, @brown3009.
I know it has been really frustrating for you and this issue may have impacted your workflow. We want to make sure the vendor will receive the invite successfully.
For this, have them open the invitation in a private browser. Unexpected issues in QuickBooks are sometimes affected by the amount of data stored in the cache. This is because a regular browser will constantly overwrite itself and will not remove history unless done manually.
Private browsing will not save any history, so it's a great place to identify issues in the browser. Use these keyboard shortcuts to launch a new private window:
If it works, clear the cache to resolve browser issues in QBO. Using a different browser can also help.
If the same thing happens, you can send the invitation again. Here are the steps they need to do in their QBO account:
Creating a new contractor profile will also give you the option to generate a new invite. Here's how:

If none of it works, we recommend contacting our Support Team to get this reported to our engineers. You can request a representative to create a case ID for you and have them escalate this problem to our Technical Team.
I know you already reached out to them, but only our live support can escalate this issue. To get a hold of a representative to check your account, follow these steps:
Reach out to us during our operations hours. You will see it here: Support hours and type.
We appreciate your patience with this vendor invitation concern. Post here again if you have any questions about QuickBooks. I'll be right here to help you any time.
It sounds frustrating to encounter technical hiccups, especially when trying to gather essential information from contractors. Have you tried reaching out to Quickbooks support for assistance? Meanwhile, perhaps exploring alternative methods like direct email communication could bridge the gap while the link issue gets sorted. Also, if you're preparing for the NASCLA contractor exam in Florida, staying adaptable in problem-solving situations like this could be beneficial for the exam too.
