Yes, Jmacbass. You can print and e-file 1099 forms through QuickBooks Online without a payroll or contractor payment subscription. I'll provide detailed guidance in the steps below to assist you with the process.

 

Printing and e-filling 1099 forms in QuickBooks Online with a regular subscription is a smooth and straightforward procedure.

 

Here’s how to do it:

 

  1. Navigate to the Expenses tab on the left-hand menu.
  2. Click on Vendors and then select Prepare 1099s.
  3. Follow the prompts to enter your company information and ensure your vendors are set up for 1099 tracking (check the box for "Track payments for 1099") in their vendor profiles.

 

After preparing the 1099s, you will be prompted to choose a filing method. Select I’ll File Myself to print the forms yourself.

 

Once you've completed the preparation, you can select the type of 1099 form you want to print. After verifying everything is correct, proceed to print the selected 1099 forms. Ensure you have IRS-approved pre-printed forms as these are required for submission to the IRS.

 

If you decide to e-file your 1099 forms, note that this typically requires a subscription to QuickBooks Payroll services. Without this subscription, you will need to file manually by mailing the printed forms.

 

I'm also adding this article to see other related information about the 1099 form: Get answers to your 1099 questions.  

 

Additionally, I’ll provide you with these valuable resources to help you prepare for next year’s tax season. This will ensure that all contractors are correctly set up and that your 1099 reporting is both smooth and accurate:

 

 

I'm glad I could assist you with the 1099 process in QuickBooks Online. If you have any questions or require further clarification when printing your forms, reach out through this forum. We’re always here to support you. Wishing you a seamless filing experience!

Another option. subscribe to Melio (Core plan is enough) to sync with QBO, manage and pay your bills (including 1099 contractors). You can e-file your 1099 forms later. You can also get $100 cashback.

Thanks, but are we allowed to paper file 1096?  We have 15 W-2, through payroll provider, and about 10 1099’s.

Good morning, @Jmacbass0755

 

Thanks for hopping back in on this thread and asking additional questions.

 

QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Contractor Payments don't provide Form 1096. If you are filing electronically, Form 1096 isn't required by the IRS. For more info Form 1096 and About Form 1096, Annual Summary and Transmittal of U.S. Information Returns

 

Review this guide for more details as well: Print 1099 or 1096 forms

 

Feel free to come back if you have any other questions. Have a great day!
