Frequently Asked Questions

Is There an Updated Deadline for the 2024 Tax Year?

Yes, the IRS has revised the deadline for delivering recipient copies of certain forms. For the 2024 tax year, the new due date for providing Forms 1099-B, 1099-S, and 1099-MISC (specifically when amounts are reported in boxes 8 or 10) is now February 18, 2025. Make sure to update your filing schedule to stay compliant.


What are the new changes on Form 1099 for the 2024 tax year?

Several noteworthy changes have been implemented on Form 1099 for the 2024 tax year, affecting various types of transactions and filing thresholds:

E-filing Threshold

The IRS lowered the e-filing threshold from 250 to 10 forms starting with the 2023 tax year. Any business or individual filing 10 or more information returns must file them electronically instead of on paper. This reduced threshold remains in effect for the 2024 tax year, emphasizing the importance of electronic filing.

1099-K (Payment Card & Third Party Network Transactions)

The IRS has introduced a new reporting threshold for Form 1099-K for the 2024 tax year, requiring third-party settlement organizations (TPSOs) to report transactions when total payments to a payee exceed $5,000, regardless of the number of transactions. In 2025, this threshold will decrease to $2,500, and by 2026, it will drop further to $600 in total payments, meaning any payee receiving more than $600 will receive a Form 1099-K, irrespective of transaction count.

1099-PATR (Patronage Dividends)

Updates have been made to Form 1099-PATR, with a change to Continuous Use and instructions that remove references to specific years. Additionally, Box 12 has been updated to include information on the sustainable aviation fuel mixture credit.


When is the 1099 Filing Deadline for 2024?

Generally, most of the 1099 forms have the same deadline. Here is the 1099 deadline for the 2024 tax year. The recipient copy of the Form 1099 should be distributed to the respective recipients no later than January 31, 2025, and the copy of the Form 1099 should be filed with the IRS before February 28, 2025. If you opt for electronic filing, the deadline is extended to March 31, 2025.

Exceptions

  • Both the recipient and IRS copy of the Form 1099-NEC should be before January 31, regardless of the filing methods.
  • Recipient copy of Form 1099-MISC should be filed before February 15 If the payment is reported in Boxes 8 or 10 of Form 1099-MISC.
  • The Recipient copies of Form 1099-R and Form 1099-B should be furnished on or before February 15.

What are the key Form 1099 deadlines an independent contractor should know?

1099 Forms are used for reporting income earned from various sources, and failure to meet the deadlines can result in penalties. Here are the deadlines for the most common 1099 forms:

Form 1099-NEC (Nonemployee Compensation):

  • Deadline for payers to provide to contractors: January 31st of the following tax year.
  • Deadline for payers to file with the IRS: February 28th (paper filing) or March 31st (e-filing) of the following tax year.

Form 1099-MISC was traditionally used to report various types of miscellaneous income received during the year, such as rental income, prices, rewards, health care payments, and more.

Form 1099-K (Payment Card and Third-Party Network Transactions):

  • Deadline for payers to provide to contractors: January 31st of the following tax year.
