If the forms were accepted electronically, you can create one 1096 for each type of 1099 filed with the IRS. Or you can print, or save to your computer the actual forms filed with the IRS. Keep in mind that the IRS sets the specification requirements when it comes to e-file, including business forms.
- It’s important to note that Form 1096 is only required if you have issued certain forms and are submitting paper copies to the IRS. If you file your forms electronically, you do not need to submit Form 1096. But, if you're mailing paper versions of 1099-MISC, 1099-NEC, or others to the IRS, you should attach a 1096 summary as the cover sheet.
