You will have to post the form manually.

  • The manual entry does not require an EIN
  • You should print or copy the information on the 1099
  • There are many 1099's
  • I will guess it's a 1099 DIV or INT

 

To post a new 1099-INT or 1099-DIV

  1. Select Wages & Income
  2. I'll choose what I work on
  3. Scroll and select Interest and Dividend
  4. You may see either Start or Update
  5. Do you have investment income in 20XX - Yes
  6. Import options appear - Skip Import
  7. Click on the type of 1099 that you have - Continue
  8. Enter the new information
  9. If you wish to Add an Investment, you will repeat these steps

I hope this will help you to navigate the program
