Overview

If you have reported incorrect information on your 1099-NEC Form, you can file a 1099-NEC Correction to report the corrected information.

Generally, you can correct the recipient details, amounts, or other field data. Payer details cannot be corrected using API, and you need to send a letter to the IRS. To learn more about the information you can correct on 1099, click here.

You can file a correction for an already corrected return. However, in order to do so, the IRS must have accepted the previously filed correction.

To create a new correction return for a previously corrected one, you should send the RecordId of the previously corrected return in the "PrevReportedRecordId" of ReturnData.Manifest.

Note: TaxBandits API also supports 1099-NEC correction even if you filed your original return elsewhere or by other means (paper filing).
