I’m currently waiting for a 1099 form, am I able to make an edit after I file or do I just wait for my 1099 form?

This is for being a driver for a delivery service

You should wait for your form 1099-NEC which you should receive in the first week of February.

Filing your taxes early without that form will require you to prepare and submit an amended tax return, which is a fairly cumbersome task.

Wait for the document. You cannot make changes after you e-file.

Well I read some information that I should get it by January 31st

Well, they are required to issue them by 31 January...but if they mail them out, it could be a week later before you get them.

Unless you have an online account with the issuer, where you might be able to get a PDF of the document earlier.
