1099 Alignment issue RESOLVED FINALLY:

Spent a lot of time fixing this so hopefully my post will help others:

1. Upgraded to 2022 QB enterprise

2. Go to Help-->Update QB desktop

3. Go to Options-->Select "mark all" to include fed forms and forms engine.

4. Then go to update now and update.

5.Print 1099 forms. 

6.In my case, everything defaulted to 1099 MISC but I needed 1099- NEC

7. Went to 1099-MISC and selected "omit these"

8. Back to 1099- NEC and the drop down populated!!! (this step took a while coz it was grayed out and did not know the process)

9. take a break, go for a run or do 10 jumping jacks! good luck. 

Hope that I get a thumbs up for my 5 minute write up! time is precious!
