Fill out IRS 1099 tax forms for independent contractors and save as PDF.
Type payer and recipient details, then dollar amounts for boxes such as nonemployee compensation or federal tax withheld, into an on-screen replica of the 1099 layout; the tool positions each entry into its matching box and renders a downloadable PDF in the browser, with nothing sent to a server. The most common surprise is assuming the output is ready to mail to the IRS as Copy A - it isn't. Only the IRS's own scannable red-ink copy or an e-filed submission satisfies that requirement, so this filler is best used for the recipient, payer, and state copies, with Copy A handled separately.
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
Payer: Rock Consulting LLC, TIN 12-3456789. Recipient: Jane Doe, TIN 987-65-4321. Box 1 Nonemployee compensation: 4500.00
Expected output
A 1099-NEC PDF with 'Rock Consulting LLC' and its TIN in the payer block, 'Jane Doe' and her TIN in the recipient block, and Box 1 showing 4,500.00
The tool transcribes each entered value into the box at the same position it occupies on the official form; it does not calculate or alter the amount you enter.
Every field you type - payer name and TIN, recipient name, address and TIN, and dollar boxes like nonemployee compensation or federal tax withheld - is placed at the coordinates of the matching box on the standard 1099 layout, so the exported PDF lines up the way a typed or handwritten paper form would.
Because the form runs in the browser, entries are not uploaded anywhere. Once filled, the same data set can be rendered as separate PDF pages for the different copies (recipient, payer records, state), rather than one generic printout, so you can hand out or file each copy appropriately.
No. Copy A must be the IRS's official red-ink scannable version or be submitted through an approved e-file method; a home-printed PDF of Copy A is not valid for that purpose. Use this tool to generate the recipient, payer, and state copies, and file Copy A through a separate e-file service or on IRS-ordered forms.
No. It only fills in the form fields and produces a PDF in your browser. Submitting the return to the IRS and any required state agency, and delivering a copy to the contractor, are separate steps you still have to complete.
