Hi there, @dragonfly2.
Let me provide some information on what the Processing status means when filing your 1099s with QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
QBDT simplifies the task of filing 1099s for your contractors by using the information in your account to prepare your forms. Once you've prepared and filed your 1099s, you can head back to your Tax1099 account to check your status. I'll list the different status types below for you.
- Pending - Forms are in queue to be sent to the IRS on the scheduled date.
- Processing - Forms have been sent to the IRS. It typically takes a few days to get a response from the IRS. However, during the busier part of the tax season, there could be a much longer delay when there is heavy traffic on the FIRE system.
- Accepted - The IRS has accepted your filed forms.
- Rejected - The IRS has rejected your filed forms.
- Blocked - Forms have been blocked and will not be sent to the IRS.
In your case, there are no extra steps to take at the moment. You'll just need to wait if the IRS accepts or rejects your forms.
