How can i send a 1099 to a contractor with self employed quickbooks?

Welcome to the Community, @m akin.

I'd be glad to provide information for you to send a 1099 to a contractor in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE).

If you invited the contractor, the contractor will create a free QBSE account and enter ther W-9. Then, when you e-file the 1099 form, the contractor  will receive an email notification that their form is available. They can then access the 1099 form through their free QBSE account by clicking on the link provided in the email. 

Here's how:

1. Open the invite email and select the link.
2. Select Sign in to your QBSE account.
3. Go to the Clients tab.
4. Follow the steps to fill out and submit your W-9.

If you didn't use the e-file feature, you can print and send the copy to the contractor. You may refer to this article how to print your 1099.

For more detailed information, refer to this article: Fill out a W-9 and view your 1099-MISC.

I'll also add this article to guide you review and download transactions: Export transactions and get reports in QBSE.

Let me know if you have questions about 1099s. I'll be around to provide further assistance to you.

I noticed the guidelines shared by Clark_B only work if you are the contractor. But if you need to send a 1099 to your contractor, you can use a free billing management app to pay your contractor with a credit or debit card. Your bank will handle sending the 1099-K to your contractor and you just need to run the bank feed as usual to record your expenses in QBSE.
