How do you access quick employer forms for this year?

The link takes me to a page to buy Turbo Tax Business (download version). I am using Turbo Tax Home & Business online. It worked fine last year.

Since you are using the TurboTax Self-Employed online edition.

Sign onto your online account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to Your Account and click on Show

Click on Create W-2's and 1099s

THANK YOU! This is exactly what I needed.

I don't see "Your Account" when I sign in. Anywhere I click that's supposed to help me create 1099s takes me to https://quickemployerforms.intuit.com/welcomeNewCustomer.htm and it looks like I need to purchase the Small Business program in order to create 1099s? I'm currently using the Self-Employed online edition.

In order to access Quick Forms with your TurboTax Self-Employed Online, please follow these steps:

1. Sign onto your TurboTax online account here.
2. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Your Account.
3. Click on Create W-2's and 1099's.

Both 1099's and W-2's must be filed or postmarked by February 1.

I am a Turbotax Advantage member using the download copy of the Home & Business 2020, how do I log in without getting buy another copy fo the software?

@dvhunter  Home & Business on Windows or Mac?  They work different.

In the Window's Home & Business or Business Desktop program to Prepare W2s or 1099s, go to Start a New Return or File-New Return.

Then on the next screen it asks What would you like to do?

Check the circle that says Prepare W-2s and 1099s for my employees or contractors.  Then that will expand and give you a choice to prepare them online or on your computer.

If you select to do them online using the Quick Employer Forms the forms are efiled to the IRS.  You then print the copies to give out to your people and print copies for yourself.  See this for more info…..

If you select to do them on your computer you are responsible to mail the forms to the IRS.

How can I use Quick Employer Forms for year 2021 (it's now October).?  It defaults to 2020.

[VolvoGirl]

2021 is not over yet.  Quick Employer Forms won't be available for 2021 until January.  What do you need?  You might get blank 1099 or W2 forms from the IRS early.
