Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

No. Our filing service allows businesses to submit Form 1099-SB without obtaining a TCC, creating an IRS IRIS account, or completing ID.me verification. We transmit filings on your behalf through our IRS-approved A2A channel.

Simply upload your spreadsheet securely through our portal. We generate the IRS XML files and recipient PDFs, validate the data, and electronically transmit the filing through IRIS after your approval.

Dedicated Representative

Every client is paired with a knowledgeable representative who brings at least 15 years of IRS filing experience. You’ll always have a direct point of contact to guide you through the process.

Lower Administrative Burden

By outsourcing tax reporting tasks, your business can free up valuable time and resources to focus on core operations rather than compliance details.

No TCC or ID.me Needed

We eliminate the hassle of registering for a Transmitter Control Code (TCC) or verifying identity through ID.me, making the filing process faster and easier.

Yes. We support corrected 1099-SB filings for both current and prior tax years.

Yes. Recipient PDF copies are generated for review before filing.

1099FIRE previously sold 1099-SB software for the IRS FIRE System, where users could generate a file and upload it through the IRS website. IRIS is different. For 1099-SB filing, there is no simple IRS upload screen where users can browse for a file and submit it themselves. IRIS transmissions must be sent through a secure A2A channel.

 

Because the A2A connection cannot be packaged as normal downloadable software, we now provide a 1099-SB e-filing service instead. Upload your Excel file to our secure portal. Your data is checked as you upload, you approve PDF copies, and we create the IRS file and e-file it through IRIS for you.
