The IRS is accustomed to changing rules year-to-year, sometimes even in the middle of the current tax season! This is why having the most accurate information about the IRS requirements and deadlines for filing any Form 1099 is essential. Use reliable tax software to e-file your forms and stay updated on any changes in regulations or deadlines.

The exception to these deadlines above is for filing Form 1099-NEC. Depending on the filing method, there is a month's advancement on the recipient and IRS copies being January 31st. Get started with BoomTax and file your 1099 with the IRS, state, and mail recipient copies on time.

If you find errors after filing your 1099 return with the IRS, promptly correct the information and submit the corrected Form 1099 and Form 1096 to the IRS. Also, provide your recipient with an updated 1099 showing the updated details. If you need to correct any state or local tax department information, file the form with the appropriate agencies, not the IRS.
