If you find an error in the payer (NOT recipient) name and/or TIN after you have filed a 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC Form, you will need to write a letter containing the following information and send it to the IRS.

  • Name and address of the payer.
  • Type of error (including the incorrect payer name/TIN that was reported).
  • Tax year.
  • Payer TIN.
  • Type of return.
  • Number of payees.
  • Filing method (paper or electronic).
  • Was federal income tax withheld?

Mail the letter to the address below:
