FAQ

…a bit about the 1099-MISC and 1096 IRS Form Print Template…

The 1099-MISC form print template that we offer on this website is used by small business owners who are looking for a solution to quickly print information on their IRS-obtained official, scannable 1099-MISC paper forms. The IRS requires filers who submit the form by mail to submit it on official red 1099-MISC COPY A forms, or face a penalty. The template we provide allows you to print onto your official forms with little hassle! Please note, below is not official advice, but a sharing of our knowledge and learnings as a small business.

Can the 1099-MISC Form be handwritten?

IRS allows 1099-MISC forms to be handwritten. We have used this method in the past and found it challenging and time-consuming to create a perfectly legible copy of the form. The solution was to create a print template where we could load our blank 1099-MISC forms and print the data onto them.

Great, can I obtain an actual 1099-MISC form digital PDF, not just the print template document you are selling?

Absolutely! In fact, you can get it here for free (2017 PDF 1099-MISC Form with Form Fields). Please remember you cannot mail these to the IRS. However, this is great to use to send to your recipients electronically by email.

I downloaded the template, what now?
