File IRS Form 1099-A online

Avalara 1099 & W-9 supports the e-filing and e-delivery of many IRS form types, including Form 1099-A for reporting the acquisition or abandonment of secured property.

What is Form 1099-A and when is it required?

Form 1099-A reports the acquisition or abandonment of property that was secured by a loan. This form is issued to taxpayers when a lender acquires property due to foreclosure or when the borrower abandons the property. It helps ensure the acquisition or abandonment is accurately reported for tax purposes.


Lenders must file Form 1099-A with the IRS for each property that is acquired due to foreclosure or when a borrower abandons the property.

 

Examples of when a 1099-A should be filed include:

 

  • Foreclosure of real estate
  • Abandonment of property used as collateral
  • Acquisition of property by a lender after default

Can I file Form 1099-A online?

Yes. You can e-file Form 1099-A through the IRS website or by mail. You may also use Avalara 1099 & W-9 to streamline the e-filing process and help prevent costly errors.

What are the IRS deadlines for filing Form 1099-A?

  • Send copies to recipients by January 31.
  • E-file with the IRS by March 31.

When these dates fall on a weekend or holiday, the deadline shifts to the next business day.

Do I need to file Form 1099-A with state tax agencies?

It depends. Some states require you to file Form 1099-A directly, especially if state income tax was withheld or if you’re not using the IRS Combined Federal/State Filing Program (CF/SF). Requirements, deadlines, and formats vary by state.

What information is required to file a 1099-A with the IRS?

Form 1099-A requires details about the acquisition or abandonment of property, including the date of the foreclosure or abandonment, a description of the property, the balance of the principal outstanding on the loan, and the fair market value of the property at the time of the event.
