I spent three hours on the phone with them between yesterday and today.  It is not fixed, and they have no idea when it will be.  I created a template on Word and am typing in my information to print.  I cannot wait any longer.  I have about 500 1099's to print.

Me too. Quickbook keep posting a "solution" that doesn't apply to your question. I am not sure why quickbook wasn't aware of this problem. The funny thing Quickbook is selling 3 part tops 1099-NEC forms. I can't even find 2 part tops 1099-NEC forms anywhere in the market 

WHAT ABOUT QUICKBOOKS ONLINE???

I’ve done everything you suggested to updates the critical fixes and now when I go to print the 1099 NEC forms, it’s saying there are non to print! The were there before I did these steps. Help!

Time is getting short we need a fix now

Mine are printing now, after many hours on the phone... but it does not fit on the forms I bought from Office Depot.  They told me they only support forms you buy from them.  I thought the 1099 form was a "standardized" form set by the IRS.  Many people order their forms FROM the IRS. How can Quickbooks force us to buy forms from them ONLY??

Hi everyone, I want to ensure this problem is addressed timely.

For all customers who are having trouble printing 1099s, the supposed fix where to install QuickBooks' latest released versions. Press the F2 key on your keyboard and review the list below for reference.

QuickBooks for Windows:

• QuickBooks 2022/Enterprise 22 - R3_71 (or later)
• QuickBooks 2021/Enterprise 21 - R8_62 (or later)
• QuickBooks 2020/Enterprise 20 - RR13_39 (or later)
• QuickBooks 2019/Enterprise 19 - R16_55 (or later)

QuickBooks for Mac:

• QuickBooks Mac Plus 2022 R4 (or later)
• QuickBooks Mac 2021 R8 (or later)
• QuickBooks Mac 2020 - update coming soon
• QuickBooks Mac 2019 - update coming soon

Since the issue persists, I recommend contacting our Customer Care Support. You can work with one of our specialists to let our engineering team investigate why the latest released still not printing forms as expected. I'll show you how.

I am having the same problem.  I have 2018 and followed all the steps and can not get it to print 3 1099's

I've called several times, and no one is even aware of the issue? How did you find someone who knows how to help? The lady I just spoke to says the 2 per page is the new update and told me if I needed to print 3-per page to go to tax1099.com and sign up for that!

Thank you for your reply!  I have updated Critical updates and now show Activated R8_68 which according to your instructions should work.

However, I have not even been able to print forms!  The program continues to freeze when I click on Print Form 1099-NEC - only the Go To 1099 Efile Service button works!

Hi,

Any news on the 3 pages per form to print 1099's? I'm trying to print them from QB 2022 desktop, I just updated and they still print 2 per page. I have several clients on the desktop.

Thank you

I had no problem printing my 1099 NEC 3 to a page on a QB version 2020 and 2021 for my clients.  My problem is in QB online the 3 to a page isn't an option for printing. The person I spoke to today at Intuit said they are working on it for QB online.  This should have been done months ago.  

Perhaps Intuit should spend less time increasing their prices and more time fixing their software....epic fail Intuit!!

I did everything you said and it still prints only two 1099's per page and not 3. No change

I followed these steps and it still does not work!

So are you out of luck if you have the 2018 version?

Thanks for following up with the Community, rcashford.
 

Since 2018 is a discontinued product, it no longer receives updates. To download and install the appropriate updates to print 1099 forms like you're looking to do, you'll need to upgrade to a current version.
 

Here's how:

1. In your top menu bar, go to Help, then Upgrade QuickBooks.
2. Choose which one you'd like to upgrade to.
3. Click Upgrade Now.
4. If you'd like to keep a copy of the current version you're using on your computer, pick Keep old version on my computer.
5. Select Let's go.

I've also included a detailed resource about upgrading which may come in handy moving forward: Upgrade QuickBooks
 

I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have an awesome day!

Release notes 13 for QuickBooks Desktop for Mac 2019 Updated 1 month ago should have the  new 1099 NEC 3 recipient for page? This is the last update for this and do not working at all for the printing process (3 recipient).

For some reason team Quickbook is ignoring the real issues. Keep on posting update this and that......IT DIDN'T WORK. If you believe you have a solution, please call me at [removed]

Hello, ddexpress.

To get the NEC 3 pages, you'll need to install the latest release of QuickBooks Desktop for Mac. Our engineering team is currently working on the newest QuickBooks Desktop 2019 for the Mac patch and release. Rest assured, the new update will be rolled out soon. 

We'll update this page once the new release is available. In case you missed it, you can manually check it. I'll show you how.

1. From the QuickBooks dropdown, select Check for QuickBooks Updates.
2. If a newer version is available, click Install Update.
3. When prompted, choose Install and Relaunch.
4. Once complete, QuickBooks for Mac will automatically open.

For your reference, I'll share this article on how to create 1099 forms: Create and file 1099s with QuickBooks Desktop.

You can add any details below if you need further assistance with the 1099 NEC forms. We're always here to assist you.

I have Quickbook Accountant 2018.    I tried your solution but it wouldn't work - still two pages NEC.    Does the solution work on 2018 Quickbooks desktop.   

Hi there, JThom1.

Thank you for visiting the QuickBooks Community and for performing some steps to resolve the issue. I'll be sharing details on how printing the 1099 form works in QuickBooks. Then, ensure you'll be able to use and accommodate three forms on a page.

Preprinted copies or three up 1099-NEC forms are available in QuickBooks Desktop and are compatible with QuickBooks 2019 or later versions, including the Mac version. However, 1099 for three per page isn't possible in QuickBooks 2018. You can get more information about QuickBooks Pre-Printed 1099 Kits by clicking on this link: QuickBooks Pre-Printed 1099 Kits. 

Additionally, services for older versions of QuickBooks Desktop are discontinued. You can no longer use the 2018 version to utilize payroll services like paying taxes. To know more about it, I recommend checking out this link: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy and upgrade information.

I suggest updating your QuickBooks 2018 to the latest version. This is to keep your software up-to-date so you'll be able to file taxes without any issues. All you need to do is check what operating system, hardware, software, and other requirements to run the latest version. You can refer to each article below to know what your computer needs.

• System requirements for QuickBooks Desktop 2021.
• System requirements for QuickBooks Desktop 2022.

• System requirements for QuickBooks Desktop for Mac 2021.

• System requirements for QuickBooks Mac Plus 2022.

You may refer to this article to view other related information about 1099 so you'll be updated with this form: Get answers to your 1099 questions.

You can always count on us if you have other concerns or inquiries about 1099-NEC. I'm always here to make sure that everything is taken care of.

I have went through all these steps and still only showing 2 to a page instead of 3.  ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS.
