IRIS System

[Terry D EA]

Has anyone else had issues with IRIS? For the last two days, I have been trying to submit a 1099 file and the page to do so only says loading. I've tried at different times to no avail. Last minute guy with 8 1099NEC to file. Regardless, the system should work.

In comparison if you use a "pay to play" website it's pretty easy.

In order to use IRIS you have to jump thru time consuming hoops just to get access.

One might think that we're being deliberately encouraged to use "pay to play" websites

I tried to use the IRIS system.. could not even get in the system. I use efilemyforms.com  which is so user friendly

I jumped through all those hoops last year so I am registered with IRIS. Earlier in January, no problems, took a few minutes and that was it. Drake , however, does not create a .txt file to upload. But, with only one or two to do, manual entry isn't bad. I did manage to get through just a few minutes ago and got the last one filed. This one had 10 forms so manual entry was a bit of a pain. I wonder if the IRS will charge the late penalty for one day? I have no idea how to prove I have been trying for the last two days.

Did you try a different web browser?  IRIS seems to work better for me when I use Firefox, and does not work well with Edge.
