HOW TO GET SSA-1099

If you cannot find your SSA1099,you can get one from your nearest Social Security office, or there is a way to go on the Social Security website and request one.  Go to www.ssa.gov  You have to create an account with a user name and password.

Unless you want the most recent tax year, which isn't what the poster said, you have to get on the phone and wait an hour. Per info on ssa.gov/mySSA/docs, you have to call their general 1213 phone number and say "Helpdesk,"  then wait an hour for them to answer. Hey, it's the government. What did you expect? Efficient service?

@Chuck54   The problem with this thread is that it is old.  Several months ago TurboTax changed from the former user forum "Answer Xchange"  to  "Real Money Talk."   When they changed forums, the old threads were moved over with June 2019 dates---we know it is confusing to users.  Sorry this led to confusion for you, but hope you were finally able to get the information you needed from SSA.
