The Case of the USPS Delivery"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tax1099.com\/blog\/12-the-case-of-the-email-delivery\/\"><br \/>\nPREVIOUSLY: THE CASE OF THE EMAIL DELIVERY<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>At Ernest&#8217;s suggestion, Walter decided to pursue the possibility of delivery vendor forms by email.<br \/>\n offers this service at no additional cost. Emails are sent out immediately, even if the forms have a scheduled date of submission to the IRS that has not yet arrived.<\/p>\n<p>Walter was happy to hear about this option, but he had a couple vendors who did not provide email addresses.<br \/>\nWhat was he supposed to do for these vendors? How would he deliver their forms?<\/p>\n<h3>THIS WEEK<\/h3>\n<p>Walter opened Tax1099, and returned to the page he had visited to email forms to vendors.<br \/>\nThis is the Forms &gt; Manage Forms page. He selected the Payer and Tax Year from the drop down menus at the top of the page.<br \/>\nNext to the &#8220;Email Recipient Copy&#8221; option, he saw a blue button that said, &#8220;USPS mail to Recipient.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Walter selected this option. He would be charged an additional fee for the mailing,<br \/>\nbut at least he wouldn&#8217;t have to go through the time and effort of printing, folding,<br \/>\nstuffing, stamping, and mailing forms himself. That may have been too much for him to handle,<br \/>\nwhat with the amount of business in his bakery.<\/p>\n<p>He wondered how he could make sure that the forms were successfully mailed.<br \/>\nHe knew that Tax1099 automatically verified that vendor addresses matched the USPS format.<br \/>\nThis eased his mind a little, but he&#8217;d prefer to have a report on the delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Walter navigated to the Dashboard. Under the heading, &#8220;What would you like to do,&#8221;<br \/>\nWalter selected the last option: &#8220;Track Mail Status.&#8221; The status of a form could be tracked either<br \/>\nby reference number of the form, or by the recipient&#8217;s taxpayer identification number.<\/p>\n<p>Walter wondered how else he might be able to track the status. He thumbed over to Reports,<br \/>\nand selected &#8220;Forms Delivery Report.&#8221; He was asked to fill in the tax year, and the time period in question.<br \/>\nAfter entering this information, Walter could select fields to be added to the report.<\/p>\n<p>His options included: Payer Name, Payer TIN, Form Type, Mailed Date, Emailed Date,<br \/>\nSubmission Date, and more.<\/p>\n<p>He generated this report. He would continue to check back, and to make sure that the forms had been delivered.<br \/>\nWalter was relieved that he would be able to track the mailing status of his forms.<\/p>\n<p>He wondered if there were anymore form delivery options. He decided that, next week, he would look into the matter.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PREVIOUSLY: THE CASE OF THE EMAIL DELIVERY At Ernest&#8217;s suggestion, Walter decided to pursue the possibility of delivery vendor forms by email. offers this service at no additional cost.
