GENERAL CORRECTIONS INFORMATION

  1. IRS Corrections
    1. 1099 Pro fully supports all IRS 1099-NEC corrections (as well as other form types).
    2. 1099 Pro also supports filing corrections on paper, electronically, or via the Service Bureau.
    3. 1099 Pro allows corrections to be filed in the Combined Federal/State Filing Program when the state & form type participate.
  2. State Corrections
    1. The 1099 Pro software supports the creation of state corrections in the software.  This means that users can enter in state amount changes, or other state changes, and the software will create a line item for the corrected form.
      1. However, the reporting of state corrections is not directly supported by the 1099 Pro software or 1099 Pro Service Bureau (regardless of whether or not the original state file was processed via the Service Bureau).
      2. Please note that state only corrections, i.e a correction to only a state amount/field, is not reportable to the IRS and will not be picked up by the IRS corrections process unless it is coupled with an eligible IRS correction.
    2. State corrections can be printed to paper or PDF.
      1. State corrections cannot be processed via the Service Bureau.
    3. The filing entity should always contact the state to get written guidance as to how to properly process state corrections as every state processes corrections differently.  For this reason, 1099 Pro cannot provide complete guidance, or support, for state corrections processing.  Examples of some state requirements are:
      1. Certain states may only require corrections if there are changes to the state withholding amounts.
      2. Certain states may require paper corrections as opposed to electronic corrections.
      3. Certain states may require the entire file to be resubmitted with the correct info (as opposed to just the corrected records).
      4. Certain states may require that the IRS Publication 1220 original file format be utilized (instead of the corrected file format).
  3. State Corrections Chart
    1. The chart below represents a starting point for your own research.  It is meant to give an idea of what types of questions to ask when contacting the state for guidance.
    2. Every state maintains different requirements and is constantly updating/changing them. 
    3. Each customer should contact the state directly if state corrections are required.
