Can I e-file form 1096 and 1099-NEC? If yes, how? Through TurboTax?

I ordered and received a snail-mailed copy of Form 1096. I don't understand the instructions for mailing the 1099-NEC. I think filing electricity would be easier. If electricity is not possible, how do I get the 1099-NEC forms?

If you have TurboTax Self-Employed, or TurboTax Desktop version you can file your 1099-NEC and Form 1096 with TurboTax. For more information, go to Easily e-file your 1099.

David, Thank you for letting me know I can file form 1096 with TurboTax. I clicked on the link you gave me, and that led me to a page that said, "

I don't want to e-file a 1099 I was sent. I need to file a 1099-NEC for the over $600 I paid to an independent contractor. Do you know how I can find that page on TurboTax?

Following up on the comments from @DavidD66, here is a link to a TurboTax article which also shows how you can efile a 1099 to an independent contractor. The article does mention that you can only do this in certain TurboTax products such as TurboTax Self-Employed or TurboTax Business.
