DEADLINE and Filing 1099 Forms for the 2016 Tax Year

www.expressirsforms.com/
Welcome to ExpressIRSForms, one of the fastest, easiest, IRS-authorized e-filing programs for 1099s on the market.
There are 11 different variations of forms in the IRS Form 1099 Series.
These forms are used to report when a taxpayer has received income from sources other than a wage-paying job.
Now with ExpressIRSForms, it’s easier than ever to e-file your 1099 Forms and remain compliant with the IRS.
But here's a quick update, the Social Security Administration is changing the deadline this year for Form 1099.
The SSA is now requiring all filers (paper and electronic alike) to submit their 1099s to the Social Security Administration by January 31st, if you filled out box 7 on Form 1099-MISC.
Otherwise, Form 1099 should be filed the year following the tax year when the payment reported was made. (ex. payments made in 2016 need to be reported in 2017).
The recipient copies of your 1099s need to be administered to your payees by January 31.
If you’re paper filing your 1099 forms with the IRS, your forms are to be submitted with Form 1096 by the last day of February.
When you e-file Form 1099, the deadline to transmit your returns is March 31.

Enter the necessary account information to create your account.
After creating your account, you will then click on the appropriate button to start your 1099 Forms.
Selecting your Payer or Employer is the first step.
If you already have employer details in your address book, you can auto-fill the required information by selecting the employer from your records here.
Next, adding recipient and form details can be processed in two ways: individually or by bulk upload.
To add a recipient individually, you must enter their name, social security number and address.
Entering these details will take you to the next step, adding their federal details.
However, if you have multiple recipients to file for, you can choose to bulk upload.
Adding multiple recipients requires you to download our Excel Template by clicking the link here.
Open the file to begin entering each recipient's information such as name, social security number and street address.
After saving the recipient details, you can upload the completed Excel template to our server and ExpressIRSForms will detect if any entries were skipped.
If no errors were found, proceed to the recipient page to begin entering each recipient's Federal Details.
You can only enter one recipient's federal details at a time, so select one recipient and click Next to enter their wages and taxes withheld.
Following Federal Details, you'll need to enter each recipient's state details.
Select the State, enter the employer's state ID number, state wages and income tax, and other valued information then proceed to Summary of you completed form.
Notice only one form is present for this employer; to add another recipient's form 1099, click Add form for this Payer.
Click the appropriate 1099 form and then select the recipient from the dropdown menu if you have recipient records in the address book.
Proceed to enter their Federal and State Details and repeat this process until you have added all recipient's 1099 forms for this employer.
Click Continue to choose how you wish to file these forms.
You can choose between Federal E-filing Only or Package which includes Federal and State e-filing along with Postal Mail.
After your selection, if you chose to electronically file 1099 with the State, ExpressIRSForms will provide further instructions on the necessary state requirements.
Now at this point, you're reaching the end of e-filing Form 1099.
The final steps before transmitting to the IRS is reviewing your order details and cost of e-filing through ExpressIRSForms.
