Quick Employer Forms helps small business owners quickly and easily create W-2, 1099-MISC, 1099-INT, and 1099-DIV forms.

It asks you easy questions, and then completes the forms for you automatically. It even e-files the forms for you.

For unlimited access to Quick Employer Forms, which you can e-file at no additional cost, you'll need to use one of the following TurboTax products:

• TurboTax Online: TurboTax Self-Employed or TurboTax Live Self-Employed
• TurboTax CD/Download: TurboTax Business or TurboTax Home & Business

For further information, please see the following TurboTax website: How do I create W-2 and 1099 forms for my employees or contractors?

Hi,

how do I file 1099s from quick employer forms? I'm stuck in an endless loop. Turbotax deluxe sent me to https://quickemployerforms.intuit.com/welcomeNewCustomer.htm which says "you must be using 2020 TurboTax Business or 2020 TurboTax Home & Business software products"

So i I upgraded from Turbotax deluxe to home & business, which sends me back to https://quickemployerforms.intuit.com/welcomeNewCustomer.htm

when i click "go to turbotax" button it takes me to a page to buy Turbotax business for $160. 

where and how can i file 1099s for my contractors?

Through a service called Quick Employer Forms (QEF).

For unlimited access to Quick Employer Forms, which you can e-file at no additional cost,  you'll need to be using one of the following TurboTax products:

• TurboTax Online: TurboTax Live or TurboTax Self-Employed
• TurboTax CD/Download: TurboTax Business or  TurboTax Home & Business

You may access QEF by signing in with the same login you used for TurboTax here: 

Welcome to TurboTax Quick Employer Forms

I have purchased TurboTax Home & Business. 

When I go to "Welcome to TurboTax Quick Employer forms" link, I see this.

 

The only option appears to be the "Go to turbotax" button.

When I hit that, I am taken to https://turbotax.intuit.com/small-business-taxes/

which is just information on purchasing another product.

What am I missing?

Are you using Home & Business on a Mac or Windows?  Are you accessing the QEF Quick Employer Forms from inside the program?  

You can do them 2 different ways from the Windows Desktop Home & Business program. Either Online using Quick Employer Forms (QEF) -or- directly on your computer with the built in W2/1099 Reporter.

In the Window's Home & Business Desktop program to Prepare W2s or 1099s, click the big blue button to Start a New Return or go up to File-New Tax Return.   Then on the next screen it asks What would you like to do?

If you get a screen with 2 choices, Check the second circle that says Prepare W-2s and 1099s for my employees or contractors. Then that will expand and give you a choice to prepare them online or on your computer.

If you get a screen that says Continue your Tax Return and a box listing your returns then go up to FILE - New Tax Return again and you should get a box to pick the type of return you need to prepare. Pick US Forms W-2/1099 Reporter

I have screen shots.

Oh my gosh.  I'm trying to file my 1099's.  And like this other person, just get an endless loop.  There used to be a File button, but that is no longer there.  After the print page, you are taken to a page to buy another Turbo tax product and then to a page to rate Turbotax and then to a page to exit Turbotax.  This needs to be fixed 1099's are due on Feb. 1. 

I think it's tacky to keep asking while you're trying to complete your tax return, if you want to purchase other products.

Please simply let us know where we need to go to file these forms.  Thank you!

Volvogirl, I'm on a Mac.

The "Create 1099s for contractors..." link from the main screen did the trick! Thank you!!
