When would you need to file a 1098?

• If you are a lending business or collection agency, are involved in real estate, are a government unit, or a cooperative housing corporation, you may need to file a Form 1098.

• If for instance, a real estate developer, you provide financing for homes in your division, and you accept the home as security for the financing, the mortgage interest your receive must be reported on IRS Form 1098.

• If you, for example, a florist, and offer a loan to an individual to buy your home, the interest your receive is not reportable, as this loan is not part of your business or trade.

Important dates

With Tax1099.com, you can schedule the date that your forms are transmitted to the IRS. Scheduling your forms gives you time between when we email/USPS your forms to vendors, and when we send the forms to the IRS. This is useful because your vendors may have edits to make. You can make those changes in Tax1099 before the scheduled date at no extra charge. We automatically schedule your IRS eFile transmission at a week away from when you submit, or by the deadline. You can edit this date to match your preference.
