Pros from Real Users Pros Ease of completing 1099's. Info is stored from year to year so I do not have to input it each year. My CPA recommended this service several years ago and I'm glad he did. Very easy to use & forms go out timely The website makes it so easy for our business to send 1099's each year. With an account, it is even more beneficial as it keeps information for repeat contractors that we use from year to year. I don't have to manually fill out any form; just a few clicks of the button and copies are sent to the recipient and the proper government office. The prices seem to be reasonable enough as well. I can file for multiple bookkeeping clients and keep information stored year over year. And I don't have to have a complicated membership to use it, I can just do one form at a time if necessary. Also, it has all the 1099 forms that I need, not just the NEC's EZ File really did make it easy to file 1099 tax forms for the independent contractors at my business. I have been using eFileMyForms for the 1099's of my company and it's very straight forward and easy to use Ease of use, intuitive, comprehensive, reminders, flags errors, options for processing / verifying / etc. I'm the volunteer accountant for several small nonprofits for whom I issue a number of 1099s each year. Efile makes it super easy, remembering the organizations' data and who we've issued 1099s for previously. The application was intuitive and easy to use. From entering data, saving, editing, printing and the final step reporting to the Regulatory Agencies primary the IRS and to the Revenue Dept for multiple states. What I love most about eFileMyForms is how remarkably easy it is to use. The interface is clean, uncluttered, and walks you through the entire filing process step-by-step. Even team members who aren't tech-savvy can navigate the platform and complete tax forms without confusion or complex training. It takes all the guesswork out of compliance.
