Hello there, @HilW19. I'm here to share information on how you can determine if you need to send a 1099-NEC to a vendor in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
The IRS requires you to file a Form 1099-NEC for any non-employee that you paid $600 or more in cash during the previous year and withheld any federal income tax under the backup withholding rules. However, please note that the IRS doesn't allow certain electronic payments to be reported on Form 1099-NEC. These payments include credit cards, debit cards, gift cards, or PayPal payments.
To confirm if you need to file a 1099-NEC to your fuel supplier, I recommend reaching out directly to the IRS. You may also refer to this website to learn more about the payment categories for 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC: Am I Required to File a Form 1099 or Other Information Return?.
Additionally, you can run reports in QBDT to show who needs 1099s and their payment totals.
Let me know in the comments below if you have additional questions about creating 1099s for your vendors. The Community is here to answer your queries. Stay safe.
