Everything you need to know about our products, filing, pricing, and security. Still stuck? Our team is one call away.
Which 1099Express product do I need?
It depends on the forms you file. 1099Express covers the full 1099 and 1098 series; W-2 Express handles W-2/W-3 wage statements; 1042-S Express is for foreign-person income; and 1095 Express handles ACA reporting. Many customers use more than one.
Do I need pre-printed forms?
No. All of our software prints on plain paper — no red-ink originals or pre-printed stock required for recipient or IRS copies.
Can I file corrections and prior-year forms?
Yes. Every product supports corrections and prior-year filing, so you can fix mistakes or catch up on past years.
Do I need a TCC to e-File?
No. We file directly to the IRS IRIS system and the SSA on your behalf — no Transmitter Control Code required on your end. Read more about the IRS FIRE to IRIS transition →
Can I e-File using my TCC with a file generated by this program?
No. We do not generate an XML file for the A2A application or a CSV file that can be uploaded to the IRIS portal. A CSV file can be downloaded, but it is not in the IRIS approved format and we are not able to support the portal upload process. A user can attempt to reformat the file into the approved IRIS format and upload it, but we will not be able to assist in that process. Read more about the IRS FIRE to IRIS transition →
How fast is e-Filing?
Submit by 4:30 PM CST and your return is processed the same day. You will receive acceptance confirmation for your records.
Can you file for me?
Yes — that is our Service Bureau. Send us your recipient data and we handle e-Filing, printing, mailing, and TIN matching for you.
How much does the software cost?
Single-user licenses start at $199 (1099Express and W-2 Express), $348 for 1042-S Express, and $399 for 1095 Express.
Is e-Filing included?
E-Filing is included at no extra charge when you request it at the same time as our Print and Mail service. If you choose to e-File without Print and Mail, a separate e-Filing fee applies. Bulk TIN matching is $74 per file (up to 10,000 records); interactive TIN matching is $1 per recipient.
How much does e-Filing cost without Print and Mail?
If you request e-Filing at the same time as Print and Mail, e-Filing is included at no extra charge. If you request e-Filing on its own, or add it after your initial Print and Mail order, a separate fee applies. See current pricing on our pricing calculator.
Can I try it before I buy?
Yes. You can watch a full demo and explore the software at no cost — you only purchase a license when you are ready to file.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. We are SOC 2 Type II certified and PCI DSS compliant, with enterprise-grade encryption protecting your sensitive taxpayer data at every step.
