Does TurboTax have a useable copy of IRS form 1096 available?

Has anyone heard of an IRS form 1096?

IRS form 1096
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1096.pdf

 

You can prepare W2 and 1099NEC & 1099MISC  and 1096 in either the Desktop Home & Business program or the Online Premium version using the QEF Quick Employer Forms.


How to prepare 1099 & W2

Form 1096 and W-3 are not required for e-file. Quick Employer Forms only supports e-file with the SSA and IRS. Please do not send any of these forms to the IRS, as this will generate duplicate filings. These forms are simply for your records. See all the FAQs here,

Here are my  notes from before.  I haven't checked this  year to see how many copies it prints out.  I think you don't get copy C anymore.

 

If you don't use efile, here are the instructions for filing Forms 1099-MISC & 1099NEC and 1096
For each Form 1099, you should have the following copies:

 

In the Windows Home & Business program if you do them on your computer and don't use Quick Employer Forms, copy A for the Internal Revenue Service now prints 3 people per page on Copy A. So if you have 4 people it will print 1 on one page and 3 on another page.

Copies B, C, and 1:
…….(Copy B for the recipient);
…….(Copy C for your records); and on the same page
…….(Copy 1 for the state tax department, if required).

Include all pages of Copy A with Form 1096 (do not staple), sign Form 1096,


IMPORTANT: Do not cut or separate Forms 1096 or 1099-MISC Copy A, even if a form is blank.
