Hello there, @accountessJane.
Let's used the 1099 Wizard one more time and check the alignment of your 1099-NEC forms. Just follow the prompt until you reach the Choose a filing method window, then proceed to align and print the form. Let me show you how:
- Click the Print 1099s button.
- Select the range (of date) the 1099s were paid from and tap OK.
- Pick the form 1099(s) you wish to print and choose the Preview 1099 button
- If the alignment is still incorrect, go to the File menu at the top-left corner and select Printer Setup.
- Close the 1099s/1096 from the list in Form Name.
- Choose the Align button and adjust alignment as needed.
- Hit OK twice to save the changes.
- You can pick which of the two forms to print first, either click Print 1099 or Print 1096.
For more information, check out this article: Print 1099 forms.
You can also check out the Make fine alignment adjustments section of this link for details on printer setup: Align, checks, invoices, and other forms for continuous-feed (dot matrix) printers.
However, if the issue persists, I'd suggest contacting our Customer Support Team. They can check your account securely and provide troubleshooting steps to resolve the alignment issue.
Here's how:
- Go to Help from the top menu.
- Select QuickBooks Desktop Help.
- Click Contact Us.
- Enter your concern in the Ask a question (or tell us what's wrong) box.
- Hit Continue then click Start a message.
Also, I'm adding these articles for detailed directions on how to file the 1099 form.
I'll be right here to help you if there's anything else that you need. Just let me know by leaving a reply below. Take care!
