Thank you for all your responses. They were helpful. You asked why I don't file electronically. Clearly I should have. But of the three companies I have two only had one 1099 and it was the same as last year so it was just easy to do it that way. Unfortunately I didn't notice the error in the date - the 1096 has 2024 and not 2025. I mailed those two in already. That doen't even address the 1096 red form issue. I notice all this when I went to do the third company that has seven 1099's. I found the 2024 error then and reading more I found out about the red form issue.
At the moment I haven't done anything more with TT. I did request 1096 forms from the IRS. I have a call later today with someone from TT's presidents office.
To me the bigger issue is the wrong year on the 1096. I can't believe no one pointed this out before me. I don't understand why that hasn't been fixed. I may file electronically. It is annoying to have to reenter the information for eveyone. Thanks again. Mark
