Welcome to the Community, 46-3814. I’ll provide details about when and how will your contractors receive their 1099s after being filed in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

The distribution of 1099s by QuickBooks to your contractors usually takes place after January 31st as it is the deadline set by the IRS for sending out forms to contractors. This happens as QuickBooks may require some time to process the information to guarantee accuracy before dispatching them.

 

On the other hand, QuickBooks follows a process where we’ll need to invite our contractors to make an account and view their 1099s for electronically delivering 1099 forms to them. Contractors can access and download their 1099 forms online using a secure feature.

 

I can guide you in inviting your contractors to access their 1099 forms through QuickBooks. We can navigate to the section for your contractors, and send them an email inviting them to either sign in to their existing QuickBooks account or create a free QuickBooks Self-Employed account.

 

Here’s how you can send them an email:

 

  1. Go to the Expenses menu and select the Contractors tab.
  2. Tap the vendor to whom you want to send an invitation.
  3. On your vendor’s profile, click the Send email hyperlink.

 

Once they’ve got their email, they can start creating their account and log in by following the steps below:

 

  1. Sign in to QuickBooks Self-Employed.
  2. Go to the Clients menu.
  3. Select the Forms tab.

I paid to have these sent out via mail on January 12th. Why is it taking so long to have these delivered to my contractors? This is not compliant. I need to know the date that these were sent and to have a copy in my quickbooks account. I have called several times and no one can tell me why our 1099s are no where to be found. Thank you for your insight.

      Your response is not at all

      useful! So stop

      posting the same irrelevant response 

      when the reason they have not been received 1099’s is there an issue with the service and 3rd party vendor.
