Submitting files

Minnesota accepts electronic filing for Prior Years.
To correct 1099s, transmitters need to upload a new file or key and send with the correct information, then send us a web message through e-Services or use the contact info at the top of this questionnaire to let us know which set of 1099s (original or later set) is correct.

You can use this option if:

•your file is less than 30 MB.

•you are a third party bulk filer who submits your clients’ W-2s one client at a time or combined into one file on behalf of multiple clients.

Log into e-Services:

1. Choose Submit Forms W-2/W-2c/1099 under the I Want To menu.

2. Choose Upload a file.

3. Review the information and choose Add Attachment.

4. Choose 1099 (IRS Pub 1220), enter a description (e.g., 2021 Forms 1099), and choose Browse to attach your file. Choose Save.

5. Choose Next to review a summary of the information you attached.

6. If correct, choose Submit to complete. If incorrect, choose the red X in the Attachments box on the left to remove the attached file. Choose Previous to attach a new file. Note: You must correct errors in your file information before reattaching a new file.

7. The confirmation screen will appear after successfully submitting your 1099 information. Print the confirmation page by choosing Printer Friendly or email the confirmation by choosing Email Me.
