You're welcome. Normally in Texas the Payer wouldn't enter anything there in those state tax boxes since there is no state income tax. The fact that you have a figure in Box 7 is making it request Box 6 info. As you found, the workaround in TX is not to mention anything for TX in the state boxes 5, 6, and 7.
@debracuaz asked: "1099 NEC reporting asks for "Box 6-State Number" - What is the State Number for Texas"
By the term "reporting" does that mean you are entering a 1099-NEC for income you received in Texas?
TX does not have a state income tax. You don't need to mention TX. Are Boxes 5,6, and 7 blank?
There is an amount in Box 7, the same as the total amount of the 1099 NEC since all of the money was earned/paid in Texas
I see now that on another 1099 NEC there is nothing in boxes 5, 6, and 7.
I will treat the first 1099 NEC as if it was the same.
Thank you for your quick reply!!
