How to add the amounts to the state boxes on the 1099 form in Accounts Payable
Description

Follow the steps to show or add state and local tax items in the following places:

  • Box 16, box 17, and box 18 on the 1099-MISC form
  • Box 5, box 6, box 7 on the 1099-NEC form
  • Box 14, box 15, box 16 on the 1099-DIV form
  • Box 15, box 16, box 17 on the 1099-INT form

Note:  Some of the box numbers changed between reporting years 2019 and 2020 and again between 2021 and 2022. The box numbers in this article are for reporting year 2022.

The 1099 Preparer contains a column for the filing state for each recipient. This is the state to which the 1099 will be sent, if they require them.

The following states require account numbers listed on the 1099 forms (State identification no./Payer's state no. box) even if there is no withholding:

  • Louisiana (LA)
  • Montana (MT)
  • Vermont (VT)
  • Wisconsin (WI)

The software will automatically place these state account numbers on the 1099 forms.

To have an account number populate on the form that isn't one of the above states, add taxable amounts for the state in the Preparer. Withholding can be left blank if there was no withholding, but the state account number will populate on the form if a taxable amount is included.

Notes:

  • North Carolina (NC) was removed as of reporting year 2023
  • Connecticut (CT) was required for reporting year 2021
  • Pennsylvania (PA) was not required for reporting years 2018 - 2020, was required for 2021, but was removed again as of reporting year 2022
  • The requirement for Oregon (OR) was removed as of reporting year 2018
