Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I file Form 1099-A electronically?

Yes! TaxZerone is IRS-authorized to support electronic submission of Form 1099-A.

2. What’s the difference between Form 1099-A and Form 1099-C?

Form 1099-A reports property acquisition/abandonment. Form 1099-C reports cancellation of debt. In some cases, both may be required.

3. Does TaxZerone offer bulk filing for lenders?

Absolutely! TaxZerone supports bulk filing for 1099-A forms. Simply upload multiple records at once to save time and effort.

4. Do I need to file Form 1099-A if the property was voluntarily returned by the borrower?

Yes. If the borrower voluntarily returns the secured property, it's treated as an abandonment, and you must report it using Form 1099-A.

5. Can I file both Form 1099-A and 1099-C for the same borrower?

Yes, in some cases. If you acquire the property and also cancel the borrower's remaining debt, both forms may be required 1099-A for the property and 1099-C for the canceled debt.

6. How can I ensure my Form 1099-A is accepted by the IRS?

Use TaxZerone’s built-in validation checks before submission. Our system automatically flags missing or incorrect data to help you stay compliant.

Yes. A copy must be provided to the borrower by the due date, either electronically (with consent) or by mail.

8. How does Form 1099-A affect a borrower’s taxes?

When a borrower’s property is foreclosed or abandoned, Form 1099-A helps determine whether there’s a taxable gain or loss. The IRS uses the form to track debt forgiveness and potential income for the borrower.

9. Is Form 1099-A the same as Form 1099-C?

No. Form 1099-A reports acquisition or abandonment of property, while Form 1099-C reports the cancellation of debt. In some cases, lenders might be required to file both, depending on the circumstances.

10. Do I need to submit a separate Form 1099-A for each borrower?

Yes. If multiple borrowers are listed on the loan, a separate form should be filed for each individual involved.
