To submit your 1099-S forms to the government, follow these steps depending on why you received it:

 

If you sold your main home

  1. Open or continue your return.
  2. Navigate to the sale of home section:
    • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to sale of home.
    • TurboTax Desktop: Search for sale of home, and select the Jump to link.
  3. Answer Yes to Did you sell or have your home foreclosed in 2024?
  4. Select Continue on the next screen.
  5. Enter the address of the home you sold on the next screen, and select Continue.
  6. On the next screen, answer Yes to Did you receive a Form 1099-S that reported this sale? and enter the info from your 1099-S.
  7. Follow the onscreen instructions.

Profits of up to $250,000 ($500,000 on a joint return) on the sale of your home may not be taxable if it was your primary residence for two of the last five years. We’ll ask you some questions about the sale of your home to see if you qualify.

If you sold other real estate

Select which type of sale you made for step-by-step instructions:

When you say "my 1099s" do you mean a Form 1099-S that you received for the sale of your home or other real estate? That's what @SabrinaD2 thinks you mean. Or do you mean more than one 1099 form? If you are asking about two or more 1099 forms, are they 1099 forms that you received, or 1099 forms that you issued to people that you paid for services they performed for your business?


There is no plain Form 1099. There are over 20 different kinds of 1099 forms. All 1099 forms have one or more letters after the 1099. The most common are 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-B, 1099-NEC, 1099-R, and 1099-G. When you ask about a 1099 form, you have to say what kind it is.
