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:

How do I create W-2 and 1099 forms in TurboTax Business?

I am looking to create a corrected w-2 or w-2c for an employee that the original w-2 was filed.  Can a corrected w-2 be done with turbo tax

No, you cannot create a W-2c in the Quick Employer Forms. 

 


How can I correct a Form 1099 or W-2 that has already been sent and accepted by the IRS or SSA?

QEF does not support corrected forms at this time. Once the original e-filing is accepted:

  • To file a corrected W-2, go to the SSA website and file the corrected form, W-2C electronically. You can also use the IRS website for forms and instructions.
  • To file a corrected 1099, use the IRS website forms and instructions for corrections.

Dear Intuit/ TurboTax: It is very nice that you made the W2 forms available through the home & business package. Particularly nice since the SSA BSO revamped their website, taking a year and a half to do it with no service and now having an onerous login/ signup process. However, why would you not make available all of the functionality? Clearly there are multiple requests here for a W2-C form including mine. In fact, I would pay more for your product knowing that it had full functionality so that as an extremely small employer I do not have to deal with the SSA directly. Please consider adding this functionality in the future. Sincerely, Suffering Taxpayer
