We are equipped to manage large-volume filings, multiple payers, bulk TIN matching, and state submissions—all transmitted securely through the CF/SF program.

Custom Quotes for Your Needs

Every business has unique requirements. A one-size-fits-all price simply doesn’t work. Call us at (480) 706-6474 for a tailored quote designed around your filing needs.

New Electronic Filing Mandate

The IRS now requires electronic filing for 10 or more information returns, effective for filings starting with tax year 2023.

Key Details

If you filed a TCC application before September 26, 2021, you must reapply and verify your identity through ID.me.
Paper filing is only allowed if you have 10 or fewer total returns to file.
If you have more than 10 returns of any one type (Forms 1099, W-2, 1098, etc.), you must e-file instead of paper file.
More companies are turning to third-party e-file providers to meet these new requirements.

I have used 1099 Fire for a number of years to prepare and file 1099 and NEC01 data for our multiple entities and highly recommend this service. It is easy to use, the data can be reviewed prior to sending and they mail the 1099/NEC's directly to the recipients, eliminating that hassle.

Best Customer Service on the market!!! 1095-C Software was easy to use, their sample document and instructional videos provided exceptionally clear instructions. We were doing a complicated process and the 1099Fire team, especially Dan and Amy went above and beyond to help us! I am extremely grateful we found them and cannot thank them enough for all of their help and expertise! We will absolutely use them again!!

We did it again! We have been using 1099Fire to generate our 1094’s and 1095’s since the Affordable Care Act was passed and the filings were required. The customer service is 5 stars! Dan, Amy, and Abby are always very helpful and professional. I would strongly recommend them for all your filing needs.

I'd tried a competitor but have never changed since trying 1099Fire. They PICK UP THE PHONE and help with issues. I've tried both outsourcing to them (ACA reporting) and doing it myself, using their software. I went back to outsourcing, seeing how much time it can take to fix errors, how many complications can arise, and how much the IRS can F__k you for getting this wrong. Highly recommend 1099Fire! Dan and Amy are phenomenal!
