It's been a long time since I closed my Sub S Corp and need some fresh information.
During the last few years, I have been consulting part time for an old client. Earlier this year, I did a job for that client that was interrupted by a family matter and I had to hire another person to do a piece of the work on my behalf as my contractor. Because of this, I have to provide my contractor a 1099 for the wages I paid him. Now it's been a long time since I filed "employer 1099's" and all I can find online is the form(s) need to be filed via paper form if less than a XXX number of forms is filed by an employer (wage payer).
Is this correct? I can't believe in this day and age that the IRS wants "special paper" 1099 & 1096 forms from a small employer.
Is there a software package that would allow me to file (with the IRS or the SSA) one 1099 and 1096 electronically? Turbo Tax Business maybe? Something else?
I'm hoping you real estate Guru's have to file these and maybe you can chime in here with some advice.
Thanks.
