So, this is what I have found out. If a 1099 is filed electronically, which TT did, then a corrected 1099 must also be filed electronically. TT does not support corrected 1099's (not cool). They direct you to the IRS website making you think that you can file them electronically from there. Unless you have special software (and why would you since you're using TT), you can not do this electronically. The forms VolvoGirl directed me to, are not able to be filed electronically as is. 

Since now you are caught between a rock and a hard place, you have to find yourself a 3rd party filer ie an accountant or a place like H&R Block to do it for you. I called H&R Block and they quoted me $145!!! 

My suggestion to anyone that has to file a 1099 and wants to do it electronically, get a TCC for IRIS and do it through there. It's free and you can make corrections through there since you filed the 1099 through there to begin with. Hindsight is 20/20. DON'T do it through TT, unless you have extra money to spend to correct a mistake. I find it unconscionable to offer a service that isn't fully capable of doing the job. Yes, they do warn you up front that they don't support corrections, but they don't let you know it isn't the easy fix they make you believe it is.
