*File Form 1099 series information returns for free online*

Business taxpayers can file electronically any Form 1099 series information returns for free with the IRS Information Returns Intake System [ [link removed] ]. The IRIS Taxpayer Portal is available to any business of any size. It's secure, reduces the need for paper forms and requires no special software.

With IRIS, business taxpayers can:


* Enter information into the portal or upload a file with a downloadable template in IRIS.
* Download completed copies of Form 1099 series information returns.
* Submit extensions.
* Make corrections to information returns filed with IRIS.
* Get alerts for input errors and missing information.
* Get a confirmation in a little as 48 hours that the IRS received the return.
* Reduce expenses on paper, postage, storage space and trips to the post office.

*Get started*

Taxpayers will need a IRIS Transmitter Control Code [ [link removed] ] to access the IRIS Taxpayer Portal. This 5-digit code provides an extra layer of security for filing and can only be use on this portal.

First time users can use Publication 5717, IRIS Taxpayer Portal User Guide [ [link removed] ], for detailed instructions about access and features.

*E-filing required for 10 or more returns*

If you have 10 or more information returns, you must file them electronically. This includes Forms W-2, e-filed with the Social Security Administration [ [link removed] ].

Find details on the final e-file regulations [ [link removed] ].
