Important 1099 Forms Update

IRS change impacts formatting of Forms 1099R, 1099 MISC, 1099 NEC, and 1099K 

The IRS has added 2 new payment fields (fields 17 and 18) to the 1099 form. As a result, the position of several existing fields will change on the following forms: 

  • 1099R
  • 1099 MISC
  • 1099 NEC
  • 1099K

We're following the IRS format, so please make sure to send us your files using the updated federal specifications (which you can find in our W2/1099 Guide for Web Upload). This change is retroactive, so if you are sending prior-year 1099s, you must use the new federal format.
