W-2 and 1099 Software...

Our W-2 and 1099 Software let's you import, print and eFile quickly and easily. 1099Fire™ is the hottest way to file information returns with the coolest results.

File by paper or electronically.

Paper Filing

An information typically consists of 3-pages where Copy A is sent to the Internal Revenue Service, Copy B is given to the Transferor and Copy C is transmitted to the Filer and/or State. Some 1099 forms, such as the 1099-MISC, has a Copy 1 and Copy 2 as well. Copy A has the look and feel of a normal sheet of paper while Copy B and C are almost like tissue-paper.  The 3-pages are connected together by a perforated edge.

The IRS requires that Copy A be submitted on their special paper with red ink if you submit less than 250 filings a year. Otherwise, the IRS encourages you to submit electronically.

The IRS provides the forms for FREE (it's an excellent service!). You can order as many forms as you like by calling 1-800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676), an IRS provided toll-free number.  There is no charge for calling, shipping or handling and they will ship up to 100 forms per call.

Each 1099 module displays the entire form on the screen. Simply insert an official IRS form into your printer and the software will print your data on top of the IRS form.  You can adjust the left and top margins so that the data prints perfectly on the form every time.

File Information Returns Electronically

The FIRE (Filing Information Returns Electronically) system is set up for financial institutions and others to file Information Return Forms 1042-S, 1098, 1099, 5498, 8027 or W-2G. An Information Return is a tax document used to report certain types of payments made by financial institutions and others who make payments as a part of their trade or business as required by Internal Revenue Code regulations.

Our 1099Fire™ software creates files in the format required by the IRS for electronic transmission. The system is updated each year to reflect the format changes that are made by the IRS. 1099Fire™ is proud of its acceptance rate.

Filing Information Returns electronically is very cost-effective, is easier than filing on paper, and is more accurate. Filing status is available within 2 business days for Forms 1098, 1099 and W2-G and electronic filers receive a later due date for most returns.

When you file electronically, you are exempt from using pre-printed forms.  You can just print the return in regular paper or email a PDF file to all recipients.

Corrections

If you make a mistake on an information return, a correction should be filed as soon as possible. Our software will create corrected replacement files for electronic submission.  We follow the instructions on amending information returns filed electronically or magnetically, refer to Part A, section 11, of Publication 1220.
