IMPORTANT: The Tax form order has been completely revised this year. Previously, Horizon requested employee and vendor counts to determine the quantity of forms needed. This year’s order should be based on actual forms (pages) needed. Our ordering method has been changed to accommodate the increase in electronic filing. Each paper form now requires the exact number of forms you need this year.

Each form will show in the description:

  • the form type
  • the price (before quantity discounts)
  • how many are needed per employee or vendor

For Example:

  1. Employee W-2 ($0.32 per form) ONE FORM PER EMPLOYEE – four part form/blank with instructions on back. Please order 1 form for each employee receiving a paper copy.
  2. IRS RED W-2 Form ($0.66 per form) ONE FOR EVERY TWO EMPLOYEES – two part form. If paper filing you need 1 for every 2 employees. Example: If you have 45 employees: 45/2=22.5 round up to 23 forms needed. You may add additional forms for test printing, printer malfunctions / misfeeds. 

Can you use last year’s extras? Each form description will state if you can use leftover forms from last year or not. Some forms are year-specific and cannot be reused. Forms such as the 1099 NEC have major changes this year, so you will need new forms and envelopes. However, some forms that are blank on each side, as well as some envelopes, are the same as previous years. Please read descriptions carefully.

Form 1099 NEC: The form 1099 NEC has been completely redesigned by the IRS. It now contains 3 vendors per page, which is a significant difference from the normal 2 vendors per page.

Example: If you have 47 vendors, (47/3 = 15.6) Round up to 16 needed and then add a couple for tests and misfeeds. This also means that the envelopes used for the 1099 MISC will NOT fit the new edition. You will need to order separate envelopes for the NEC. 

 NOTE: If you have vendors that receive both a MISC and a NEC, you can put both in a MISC envelope, placing the NEC behind the MISC.

After submitting your request: You will have the option to Print or Save a PDF.  Please print a copy for your records. You will receive a confirmation email from Horizon within a few days of your submission.  If you have not received your confirmation within 7 days, please contact Darci at 814-535-7810 to verify that it was received.

 Need help determining quantity? If you’re not sure how many forms you need, you can go to each area within the Horizon programs and pull the 2021 information:

  • Pull W2 data in payroll
  • Pull 1099 data in Section 8
  • Pull 1099 data in Financials

We recommend adding extra forms for possible additions between now and the end of 2021. In January 2022, you will pull again to update these to year end actuals. You may also review your 2020 packing slip and/or invoice to see how many were ordered in 2020.
