File 1099-INT with IRS FIRE, what do I need?

Question

I'm doing 1099's for independent contractors and for interest income.  I also have to upload it to the IRS FIRE (https://fire.irs.gov).  What products do I need?

Answer 1

You will need:

 

W2 Mate Software

W2 Mate Option #4 (Electronic Filing)

W2 Mate Option #5 (Additional 1099 Forms)

 

If you want to import the data you also need  W2 Mate Option #3 (Import W2/1099 Data : Excel, QuickBooks & Sage 50).

 

If you want to use TIN matching you need to create an account with IRS e-Services and upload the request file created by W2 Mate.

 

Remember in order to e-File with the IRS FIRE you need a TCC code.
