Correcting State Information on Your 1099

The state errors that can be corrected on Form 1099 are: State tax withheld, State/Payer’s state number, State income. If the state participates in the CF/SF program, there is the option of filing corrections through the IRS. However, this can be done ONLY when both federal and state reporting have been affected OR when only federal reporting is affected. Errors which apply only to a state filing requirement should be sent directly to the state, even if the state participates in the CF/SF program.
