Your sentiment is very much understandable, LoveHatethissoftware. 

 

I'd like to give some details on the 1099-NEC alignment and how you can tune and print it properly. 

 

The alignment applies to the new and current 1099-NEC form in QuickBooks Desktop. If you're having issues with the alignment, you would want to tweak the printing settings and ensure they print properly.  

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Click on File, then select Printer Setup.
  2. Set Form Name to 1099s/1096.
  3. Set the correct Printer Type.
  4. Press the Align button and enter the correct alignment values. 
  5. Tap OK

  

If there are any formatting changes to the 1099-NEC or any payroll forms, our Payroll Compliance team will work on the implementation and roll out an update. This ensures that you're able to print the forms correctly and file them without any issues. 
 

References about printing and aligning your 1099 forms can be found here: 
  

 

However, If the same things happen, I'd recommend contacting our Customer Care Team. They have the tools to further look into the account and create a case to be submitted to our escalation team for further investigation.  

 

Here's how to reach out to them:

 

  1. Go to the Help menu.
  2. Select QuickBooks Desktop Help.
  3. Click on Contact Us
  4. Then, choose you're preferred way to get in touch with them.
