2. Preparing for 1099 Filing

📋

Gathering Information for Filing

Wingspan generates both 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC (Box 6) forms using the
payments you record in the platform.

If you paid contractors outside of Wingspan, import those amounts with the
bulk upload tools so they are captured in your totals. Guidance for these
tools is linked below.
