FAQs
What Name/TIN records are eligible?
The records included in your Bulk TIN Match upload are determined by your selected filer(s) and form type(s); however, certain records are automatically excluded. Thus, your Bulk TIN Upload file may contain fewer records than the number of tax forms you issued this year.
- Only active records are included. Corrected records with a Zero status (Zero/Pending or Zero/Filed) and deleted records are excluded.
- Duplicate records are excluded, see What are stripped records?, below.
- Invalid records (e.g., TIN missing or incomplete, name missing) are excluded.
What are stripped records?
In accordance with IRS guidelines to prevent phishing for name/TIN combinations, duplicate records are automatically stripped from bulk TIN files. For example, if you issued three 1099s to "Jane Doe", only the first "Jane Doe" name/TIN combination is included in your upload file. Likewise, if you issued multiple forms to TIN "123-45-6789", only the first "123-45-6789" name/TIN combination is included in your upload file. You may legitimately be issuing a dozen records to unique individuals with the name "Jane Doe", however you cannot submit them all in a single upload. This is per the IRS, not a bug in our software.
Isolate Stripped Records
Corporate Suite and 1099 Pro Enterprise (not 1099 Pro Professional nor 1042-S Pro) allow you to generate a list of stripped records from your Bulk TIN Match upload file. For guidance in this process, search "Stripped" in your software help file.
