Question

Is 1099-NEC functionality Vaporware?

I've used the functionality to print some 1099-NECs and MISCs to print and mail, along with corresponding 1096 forms.

For over a week the forms are listed as "ready soon."

There was no indication on the front end that this was a "work in progress" as opposed to a functioning feature.

What is the holdup?  When will the forms become available? Reason for delay and ready dates only please.

Are you using "Create Forms" or Quick Employer Forms?   Try Quick Employer Forms.

I'm using "Create forms on Desktop" not "Quick Employer forms".
It looked like the right option since I don't want or need to efile anything. Also want to minimize data storage at Turbotax/Intuit (though I'm not sure the non-functional "Create forms on Desktop" vaporware does that.

Menus/options
Create Emplower Forms "Create 1099/W-2"
Skipped "Quick emplower forms" option (top)
Selected "Create forms on Desktop" (bottom) because I don't want/need to efile
Did not transfer any data from previous years (b/c there are none)
Skipped live tax advice
Landed at "Welcome - Easily Create !-2 and 1099 Filings for Employees and Contractors"
Then I input the data but never got a chance to print a form.

They will be checking for the "Create Forms" again tomorrow-----but a moderator tells me that you can use QEF now----so ....your choice.
