Retirement tax questions

When you entered the 1099-NEC form it asked you how the payer's federal ID number was formatted.  It gave you two choices - 'xx-xxxxxxx' or 'xxx-xx-xxxx'.  You need to go back to the 1099-NEC that you entered and then - when you come to that question - choose the second option.  That way the system will know that you received your 1099-NEC from a social security number.
