Frequently asked questions
What is Form 1099-NEC?
Form 1099-NEC reports nonemployee compensation — payments for services to independent contractors, freelancers, and other non-employees. It replaced the old box-7 use of 1099-MISC for that purpose starting with tax year 2020.
When do I need to issue a 1099-NEC?
Generally when you paid a non-employee $600 or more for services in a calendar year in the course of your trade or business. Deadlines and exceptions (for example, many corporations) are set by the IRS — confirm with your tax advisor.
Does this generator file with the IRS?
No. It creates a professional PDF you can keep and share with the recipient. Official filing is separate (accountant, tax software, or IRS electronic filing).
How is this different from the general 1099 generator page?
This page targets 1099-NEC specifically. The broader 1099 generator page explains the family of forms and routes you to the same create flow.
How much does a 1099-NEC PDF cost?
$12 per form after a free preview. Unlimited plans are listed on the pricing page.
