I e-filed 20 1099s via quick employer forms. one was bad amount. I am correcting it by mail, by sending a corrected form 1099 with the box checked. I know I also have to send form 1096. Should this new 1096 reflect my new TOTAL 1099 payouts (making it a corrected version of my original 1096?) Or does this 1096 i send now just have the info from the corrected 1099 i am sending now.

    On the form 1096 filed with your corrected 1099-MISC, you only enter information regarding the corrected 1099 in boxes 3,4 and 5.
