I haven’t received my 1099 tax form

Your 1099 tax form will be located in the Tax Forms tab of Stripe Express. Your platform should have made your 1099 tax form available to you by January 31, but there may be a number of reasons why you haven’t received it yet.

1099 tax form eligibility for stripe express

1099-MISC and 1099-NEC forms are generally only issued to individuals or businesses who have met the $600 income threshold for that year. If you earned less than $600 over the course of the calendar year, you might not be eligible to receive a 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC tax form.

1099-K forms are generally only issued to individuals or businesses if your gross amount of total reportable payments exceeds $20,000 and the total number of such transactions exceeds 200 in a calendar year —and you’re based in the US or are a US taxpayer—you should expect to receive a 1099-K, either through paperless delivery or paper mailing.

Ensure that you’ve verified your information

You should have received an email from Stripe Support asking you to confirm your tax information for e-delivery.

Tip: If you can’t find this email, try searching your email account for “Verify your tax information” and make sure that you’re using the same email account that is also used with your platform.

Download your tax forms from Stripe Express

After you’ve verified your information, you can log in to your account by visiting connect.stripe.com/app/express, where you’ll be prompted for your email address and 6-digit phone verification code to log in.

From the Tax Forms tab of Stripe Express, you will be able to view and download your 1099 tax forms. If you did not consent to paperless delivery, you will not be able to download your 1099 tax form through the Tax Forms tab of Stripe Express. Your 1099 will be mailed to the address that your platform has on file, please reach out to your platform for assistance with postal deliveries.

Before downloading your 1099 tax form you will need to enter the last four digits of the tax identification number that appears on your 1099 tax form. If you are attempting to download your 1099 tax form but are being blocked it's possible your platform has updated the TIN on your 1099 tax form since you claimed your Stripe Express account. If you've changed your TIN and/or business type this would also impact the TIN that appears on your 1099 tax form.

If you've recently requested a business type change, or have recently switched from an SSN to an EIN (or vice versa), your platform may have already updated your existing 1099 tax form.

If this applies to you, please attempt to complete the challenge using your *other* TIN. The TIN challenge is looking for the last four digits of the TIN that appears on the 1099 tax form; you'll want to make extra sure you enter the correct one.

Request a paper copy of your tax form

If you would like to receive a paper copy of your 1099 tax form, please reach out to your platform directly. If your 1099 tax form has already been filed with the IRS, it is most likely already on its way via the delivery method that was in place at the time of filing.

If you are changing your delivery preference from paperless delivery to postal mail, you will want to make sure your address is up to date. Head to the Tax forms tab of Stripe Express and click on the edit tab to make sure your address is correct. Please reach out to your platform’s support team in order to confirm postal delivery of your 1099 tax form.

Information on my tax form is incorrect

Since your platform is your 1099 tax form filer, they will be able to assist you with correcting, updating volume, or splitting your 1099 tax form if necessary. Before requesting a correction from your platform, you may edit your details in the Tax Form page in Stripe Express. However, you will notice that the information you edit will not appear in any 1099 tax form that has already been filed with the IRS.
