2024 Filing Season Changes:
Updated 09/19/2023
-
The IRS issued final regulations amending the rules for filing returns and other documents
electronically (e-File). Effective Feb 21, 2023 the regulations reduce the
required e-file threshold from 250 returns to 10!
- Additionally filers are
required to aggregate almost all the types of information returns. Earlier
regulations applied the 250-return threshold separately to each type of
return.

- The IRS has also launched a
new portal called IRIS where you can efile for free without special
software. There is rather complex application process which also includes
setting up an ID.ME account.
Please click here for more info.
-
Once registered
Please
click here to go to IRIS. There are limitations to the online portal.
You can only key in the entries by hand or submit a csv file in the approved
format. The 1099Express software will be able to build the .csv file for you
next year. Currently there is a 100 line limit on the .csv import option.
-
FIRE is still available and will be until all forms are able to be processed by IRIS.
2023 Filing Season Changes:
- All existing IRS e-Services users will be
required to complete an ID.me account before accessing any of the
applications or services under e-services.
- All current TCC holders that have had
their TCC prior to September 2021 will be required to create and ID.me
account and fill out an IR application.
- 1099-K forms will now be issued for any
number of transactions totaling $600 for the year. This is in contrast to
prior years when the threshold was 200 transactions or $20,000.
- The 1098-F form has been updated to
include changes to the recipient form regarding the field title, general
description field and deleting indicators F, G, H & I.
