Can I file taxes when I am missing a 1099?

You should not file your taxes if you know you are missing a form. Since tomorrow is the deadline you should consider filing an extension. When filing the extension if you owe taxes you should pay the taxes with the extension to avoid any penalties. If you have a refund, then just file the extension without a payment.

An extension gives you until October 15, 2022, to file your return. This will give you time to contact the party that owes you Form 1099. As soon as you receive the Form

1099 you can complete your return.
