1099 Preparation and Filing

Worked with contractors last year? Then you’ve probably got 1099s to send out.

It’s one of those tasks that sneaks up fast—especially in January. And if you miss it or get it wrong, the IRS isn’t shy about charging penalties.

That’s why we offer 1099 Preparation and Filing. We track what you paid your contractors, prepare the forms, and file them on time—so you don’t have to panic when the deadline hits.

What’s a 1099 Again?

If you paid any freelancer, contractor, or vendor $600 or more last year for services (not goods), you probably owe them a 1099-NEC.

This form tells the IRS, “Hey, we paid this person. They’re not an employee, but we still had to pay them.”

And the clock starts ticking every January.

Here’s What We Handle

• Review your contractor payments for the year

• Request or confirm W-9s from each contractor

• Track down missing tax info

• Prepare and file Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC

• Send copies to contractors

• E-file with the IRS and any required states

• Keep records for your files

We’ll also flag payments that don’t need a 1099, so you’re not sending forms for things like software, rent, or product purchases.

What Happens If You Don’t File?

• You could get hit with penalties—$60 to $310 per form, depending how late it is

• Your contractors could complain (and they’d be right)

• Your tax pro might charge extra to fix the mess

• You might get flagged for an audit

We help you skip all of that.

Works for Any Business That Uses Contractors

We’ve helped:

• Coaches

• Construction companies

• Salons

• Restaurants

• Retail stores

• Agencies

• E-commerce shops

If you pay non-employees for work, we’ve got you covered.

We even had one Seattle client who totally forgot they’d paid a videographer $8,000 last year. We caught it, sent the 1099, and avoided a penalty just in time.

Behind on Past Years?

No worries. We can still prep and file late 1099s if needed. The sooner we fix it, the better—and you’ll stay in the IRS’s good graces.

No Guesswork. No Stress

We make it easy:

• You upload your contractor list and payments

• We double-check everything

• You review and approve

• We file and send the forms

Done and done.

And if you don’t even have a contractor list yet? We’ll help you build one and get those W-9s locked down for next year.
