Question

No access to Quick Employer Forms

Last year I was able to use Quick Employer Forms in 2019 and 2020 to issue 1099-MISC and 1099-INT, as I purchased online TURBOTAX online self-employed tax. 

 

This year (2021), I purchased the same online TurboTax self-employed, but I was unable to use Quick Employer forms. The website shows that "To continue with unlimited access to TurboTax Quick Employer Forms, you must be using 2020 TurboTax Business or 2020 TurboTax Home & Business software products". TurboTax self-employed is the online version of Home&Business, I believe. So why I have no access to Quick Employer Forms? 

 

Thank you,

In order to access Quick Forms with your TurboTax Self-Employed Online, please follow these steps:

  1. Sign onto your TurboTax online account here.
  2. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Your Account.
  3. Click on Create W-2's and 1099's.

@LenaH When I click on the link, it takes me to a splash screen saying "Welcome, we're glad you're here!". The lower left link is for "Intuit Account" (just above sign out). It does not say "Your Account" nor includes mention of creating 1099s.

Try going to Quick Employer Forms from TurboTax Online instead of the desktop version.   Use this link to sign into TurboTax.   Use the same account ID as your Quick Employer Forms account.   You may need to click through a few intro screens, but choose the product Self-Employed Online.   You do not need to enter anything more than your first name.   Once you get to the Tax Home page, you will be able to access the same Quick Employer Forms account you have used in the past.    @iagt

 

To access Quick Employer Forms from your 2021 Self-Employed Online TurboTax account:

 

Sign into your TurboTax account (use your QEF login credentials) - you will land on the Tax Home page.

Scroll all the way down to Your Account - click the caret to expand

Click on Create W-2s and 1099s

 

This should take you to the Quick Employer website and you should be able to access your previous years' forms and create forms for 2021.
