4) Form 1099 NEC California Issues:
We discovered the IRS is not forwarding the Forms 1099-NEC to most states…as it has for Forms 1099-MISC in past years. This is because the form is new and, oddly, the normal document sharing process between the I.R.S. and state tax authorities has not been established for this particular form.
For California filing purposes, I have attached the link to California FTB 1099 info sheet for your reference.
https://www.ftb.ca.gov/file/business/information-returns.html
The 1099-NECs are due to California 2/28/21 per the attachment. Since that date is a Sunday, it is extended to Monday, 3/1/21.
If you used a service to process your 1099s, please check with them to see if they can (or did) e-file the state copy for you. If you did them manually, you can mail the paper form. The address to file the paper forms is:
Franchise Tax Board
PO Box 942840
Sacramento, CA 94240-6090
As an additional option, GROCO does have an FTB Swift e-filing account. To use this, we will need to input your company information and details from your Tax Year 2020 IRS Form 1099s in our system before we can e-file them. Please let us know if you would like this option.
If you are located in a different state and need assistance with that state’s requirements, please contact us:
