How do I make and give out a 1099?

[roachpit77]

I had a person helping me last year and need to give him a 1099, how do I do that?

If you are using TurboTax Home & Business or TurboTax Self- Employed, you can prepare the 1099 within the program.  See What is Quick Employer Forms? - TurboTax Support

Assuming you have the Online Self Employed version,

Log into your account

Scroll down to Your Account and click on Show

Click on Create W-2s and 1099s

In your return, Anywhere on any screen you see....

Help me prepare and file W-2s and 1099s

Click on it and the side box will open, Then click on Quick Employer Forms in the side box.

Or from the Account Screen it will take you directly to Quick Employer Forms

You can get the blank forms from the IRS.

I cannot find the "show". I get to the Quick Employee forms and it says I can't go any further without a business version and I only have the Self Employed version.

There are several ways to get to the QuickEmployer forms program so you can prepare your 1099 forms.

In TurboTax desktop, when you go to create a new return, you will see an option to "Prepare W-2's and 1099's for my employees or contractors."

In TurboTax online, you will see an option on your Home Page under "Your Account" to "create W-2s and 1099s."
