Standard TurboTax products don't support preparing or filing Form 1096. Form 1096 is a summary transmittal form used to submit certain paper information returns to the IRS, such as Forms 1099 and 1098, and is typically used by businesses or tax professionals filing information returns by paper instead of electronically.
If you need to file Form 1096, TurboTax doesn't provide a feature to create it within the standard consumer versions. Filing Form 1096 usually requires specialized software or filing through IRS-approved channels outside of TurboTax.
Why do you need a 1096? That is a transmittal form you send to the IRS with 1099s. You don't enter a 1096 into your personal return. Do you need to prepare 1099 and 1096 for people you pay?
You can prepare W2 and 1099NEC & 1099MISC in either the Desktop Home & Business program or the Online Premium version using the QEF Quick Employer Forms.
