U.S. Payroll
1099's were due by the end of January, unless you are e-filing. The due date for filing 1099's by e-file to the IRS is the last day of March. Offices with more than 250 agents are required to e-file, however there is no minimum.
Please see our instructions for generating 1099' in the 9.5.4 section of the U.S. Payroll chapter in the Help menu, or by viewing the online tutorial found on our website www.lwolf.com under the Video Tutorials section of the support page. Once you have prepared the 1099's for printing following the above directions, you are able to e-file. This function will allow you to send your 1099's electronically to the IRS. Next to the Print Button, you should see the e-file Button. Click this button and you will be prompted to fill out some contact information. This is for use by the IRS to contact your company, and also some company ID #'s such as your Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), Transmitter Control Code (TCC) and Payer Name Control, a 5 digit code found on your 1099 mailing package.
NOTE: The TCC code can be obtained by completing and sending Form 4419 to the IRS, which may take up to 30 days to be returned. If you have already received a TCC for Magnetic Media, you do not need to re-apply, your TCC will work with e-filing also. Then select Test as the File Type for your test file or "original" when you are actually filing your 1099's. Press OK and you will then be asked where you want to save your file.
NOTE: Please contact the IRS before sending the test 1099's. For IRS Assistance, contact the IRS/MCC Information Reporting Program Customer Service Section (IRP/CSS) toll free at 1-866-455-7438, Monday-Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm EST, or email them at mccirp@irs.gov. When you are ready to send the original files, select Original from the aforementioned drop-down list. You can now submit your 1099's electronically.
