Tax1099

I have tried multiple times to do online chat and also left a message yesterday with no response. I just need to know why my 1099s are still sitting out there as "submitted" and not approved. And where is my 1096? Since I saw fairly timely responses on this board, I figured I would give it a try and see if I can get a response. I'll change my rating once I can confirm our 1099s were mailed and approved... because right now I'm just plain scared!

Used Tax1099 for several companies 1099's last week. I have been getting calls from vendors stating that they are receiving 2 1099's that are identical with 2 separate account numbers (Tax1099 assigns). Online support stated that they had a glitch and some received 2 and that 2 were not uploaded to the IRS to disregard the extra one. On another company it shows that I uploaded all of y 1099's twice (I didn't). Now I have to go in and do a corrected 1099 for each of my vendors. The correction is not as easy as uploading them from QB like the original ones.

Very Frustrated!

This really makes me question why QuickBooks would "partner" with this company?
Could not get the plug-in to download and followed every instruction. Called? Customer? Service and spoke in part to an agent that could barely speak English, but she was very clear that she wanted me to allow her remote access... after waiting over 30 minutes for her to return with suggestions for the error code I gave, I just hung up and manually entered the data into the on-line forms. I wasted nearly half a day trying to use this company and would rather guoge my eyes out with sharp (or dull) stick than try this again... If you hate this site as much as do AND you are a QuickBook referred user... PLEASE complain to QuickBooks...

You are saying you did a quality assurance test during the busiest time of the year? So considering my clients have been waiting 3 weeks now for their W2's and 1099's, when are you planning on releasing them? And when will you be issuing at least a partial refund for false/misleading advertising? I could have done the mailings myself for 1/10th the price, but I was swamped and figure since you promised 3-5 days, I would pay the extra fee to get it to my 16 clients quickly. This is ridiculous, I've called, emailed and tried the chat for a week now and NO response... funny how you are able to respond timely to all these reviews to try to save face. If you actually responded to your clients questions/concerns you wouldn't have this problem.

In theory it's great. In practice it's not functioning properly. We entered a 941, then made edits. When you select view or print it populates with the old info but when you go back to edit it has all the changes all the way through to the end. Select view, and it still has old info. Support was good until 2 weeks ago. Now, the chat closes before anyone comes on and the phone support doesn't answer. Have other issues too including getting booted out in the middle of entering 1099s. For an intuit product I expect all lot better performance. They really blew it on this one. Unprepared and in over their head.

I submitted a 1099-MISC on 1/25/2016. The site showed that they would be transmitted 1/31/2017. I was unable to change the date on transmission, which seemed unreasonable but at least the filing deadline would be met. The process took a lot longer than I expected.

I expected at least an email notification confirming that the agency had accepted the transmission. As of 2/2/2017, no confirmation, and I cannot find confirmation on the site either. I efile payroll returns thru QuickBooks and always see agency acceptance confirmations the same day. There is also a history of all filings in QB. There is no record of filing 1099's in QB with this system.

I don't wish to use a system that doesn't assure me that I am in compliance with filing requirements, especially since I file on behalf of clients, nor record a history of filings in my accounting software.

I've used this site for the last couple of years to file a 1099-B. I never had any trouble so decided to file my 1099-misc forms for two different companies. I entered and submitted the 1099s for the first payee. When I went back to create new form, it will not let me select 1099-Misc or any of the 1099's listed in the first row. Is the website having issues or is it operator error. I need someone to help me and am not getting anywhere calling or chatting. This is so frustrating.

You used to be able to do your 1099 in quickbooks. Now they are using tax1099. A pain. Reports take a long time to report. I'm not sure if they sent the info the the IRS and mailed the 1099. Very bad expereience.

I am the director of operations for an outsourced accounting and finance company in San Diego, CA. We paper filed 1099s last year for 50+ clients. It was a disaster. Not only was it terribly inefficient but we weren't able to bill back most of the materials due to being unorganized. This year we moved to tax1099.com. We successfully filed 71 clients (91 entities) total. We approximated our time savings of 350 man hours which resulted in tremendous client savings and allowed us to spend more time on value add activities. We estimated that our cost per 1099 dropped from $50 to $30 when you add prep, review submission at various billable rates + filing fees.

I'm glad we used Tax1099.com. I hope they improve the speed of their website next year. That was the majority of our teams complaints.

The website is full of glitches where you can not easily review or print out the 1099 forms you recently submitted. Then when you try to figure out why you can access the documents you paid for already, you find out the Chat Experts are not available to chat/help you, then you call their costumer service number and due to high call volume they can not answer your call.
So basically be aware, you're on your own if you decide to use Tax1099 services!
Horrible service. Will not recommend to anyone.

1. The whole Tax1099.com interface it NOT intuitive at all, hard to figure out what to do in what order. It definitely needs a re-design.
2. Had issues pulling in data from QBO, had to use Excel spreadsheet instead which took time to setup.
3. The download all or multiple PDF option was not working. We had to do each one manually, one-by-one.
4. The payment process is confusing (pre-payment vs. post-payment).
5. Customer Service was easy to reach, courteous, and helpful.
6. The site has good prices, though it's tiered and a little confusing. For example, when you do 11 - 100 forms, the price drops, but only for the 11th through 100th form. You still pay the base price for forms 01 through 10. A little confusing, but not a deal breaker.

Maybe things have improved but I have not had the kind of problems other people have complained about. I had no problem uploading 230 1099s from QB. I haven't had any trouble figuring out how to enter data and prep forms for filing. I like the fact that you have time to make changes after upload and before efiling unlike other 1099 software programs I have used in the past. I am not sure I am happy about the printing options but still looking into that.
