If you need to fix mistakes on a Form 1099-NEC that has already been submitted, there are two options:
- If the return has been accepted by the IRS, you will need to file a void return. This cancels out the original 1099-NEC. Then, you can file a new return.
- If the return was rejected by the IRS due to errors, you can file a corrected return. This will replace the rejected return with the updated accurate information.
