When do 1099's need to be mailed?

Form 1099s must be mailed to recipients by January 31 of the year following the tax year in which payments were made. If the 1099 is for non-employee compensation, it must also be filed with the IRS by this date. For other types of 1099 forms, the deadline to file with the IRS can vary slightly, but it is generally due by the end of February if filed by paper, or by March if filed electronically. Always double-check for any updates or changes to IRS deadlines each tax season.
