In order to create W-2s and 1099 forms in TurboTax Self-Employed or TurboTax Business, you'll need to go back to the initial opening screen that appears when you first launch the program.

 

1. If you are using TurboTax Self-Employed, you can follow these steps:

  • Log in and if you see “Continue my taxes”, select that and it will take you to welcome screen
  • On the Welcome screen you should see “Manage Your Return” section and “Manage Your Account” section.
  • Under “Manage Your Return,” you should see “Create W-2s and 1099s”
  • Once you select “Create W-2s and 1099s,” another window will pop up and this will be the Quick Employer Forms window.
  • This is where you either log in or create an account and then create W-2s and 1099s.

2. If you are using TurboTax Business, then you can follow the instructions in this TurboTax FAQ:
