Prepare miscellaneous information with the 1099-MISC generator. Enter the payer and recipient details, place each reportable payment in its applicable category, and review the official-template preview before downloading.
What You Need Before You Start
- Payer and recipient legal names, addresses, and taxpayer identification numbers.
- Payment totals separated by the applicable category, such as rents or royalties.
- Actual federal or state withholding, where applicable.
- The reporting year and supporting business payment records.
Use only records you are authorized to prepare. Verify the year printed on the template; a template for a different year may have different boxes or instructions.
Review Your 1099-MISC Details
Keep categories separate instead of combining every payment into one box. Nonemployee compensation generally belongs on Form 1099-NEC, while Form 1099-MISC has its own payment categories and exceptions. Consult the instructions for the year shown on your template.

- Review the preview and correct any errors.
