What is Form 1096?

Form 1096 is a form used by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to report summary information for certain types of information returns. The form is used to report the total number of information returns filed, as well as the total amount of money reported on those returns.

The form is required to be filed by any person or entity who files 250 or more information returns during a calendar year. This includes any person or entity who files 1099, 1098, W-2G, or other similar forms.

If you are required to file Form 1096, you will need to complete one form for each type of return that you file. For example, if you file 500 W-2 forms and 50 1099-MISC forms, you will need to complete two Form 1096s - one for the W-2s and one for the 1099-MISC forms.

Form 1096 must be filed with the IRS by February 28th (March 31st if e-filing). You will also need to send a copy of Form 1096 to the recipient of the return - this can be done electronically or by mail.

Why Do I Need to Print Form 1096 in QuickBooks?

If you are required to file Form 1096 with the IRS, you must also print it in QuickBooks. This is because QuickBooks is the only software that can populate all of the required information on the form.

Form 1096 is used to report information about certain types of payments made throughout the year. The most common type of payment that requires Form 1096 reporting is credit card payments.

If you process credit card payments through QuickBooks, you will need to print Form 1096 and send it to the IRS along with your annual tax return.

While printing Form 1096 in QuickBooks may seem like an unnecessary step, it is actually required by the IRS. Without QuickBooks, you would not be able to accurately complete Form 1096.
