Quick Employer Forms Not Working

jm915998 — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 00:41:19 GMT

I just purchased TurboTax Business 2021, which is required to use Quick Employer Forms. Even though I have purchased your business product, I keep getting this New Welcome screen when I go to e-file/sign the 1099-MISC. Why is that? I have tried logging off and back in, but every time I create the form, then it circles me back to this page. I'm even signed into the desktop app as well.

Are you linking in to the QEF tool thru the TT program ?

WINDOWS

In the Window's Home & Business or Business Desktop program to Prepare W2s or 1099s, go to Start a New Return or File-New Return.

Then on the next screen it asks What would you like to do?

Check the circle that says Prepare W-2s and 1099s for my employees or contractors. Then that will expand and give you a choice to prepare them online or on your computer.

If you select to do them online using the Quick Employer Forms the forms are efiled to the IRS. You then print the copies to give out to your people and print copies for yourself. See this for more info…..

If you select to do them on your computer you are responsible to mail the forms to the IRS.

MAC

If you are using the Mac Home & Business CD/Download program you can only prepare W2s and 1099s using QEF-Quick Employer Forms. At the bottom of the Welcome to Turbo Tax screen it should say Create 1099s for Contractors and W2s for Employees.

Another way to get to the Quick Employer Forms is to go to the Business tab - Continue

Select I'll Choose what I work on (if it comes up)

Top item Profit or Loss from Business - Click Start

Click Edit by your Business

Then either

Scroll down to Business Expenses

On Other Common Business Expenses, click the start or update button

There are two sections where you can start using the QEF for contractors or employees.

For Contractors, on Contract Labor, Click the Start button

On the screen "Enter Contract Labor Expenses" there is shown "Create and File W-2s and 1099s Online with Turbo Tax Quick Employer Forms" and a "Start here" blue highlighted link. This will take you to the QEF website.

That did it, thank you! I think there was some disconnect between the software and online, but doing it that way worked. Thank you!
