JimTaxes Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 I know W-3/W2s are not supposed to be folded. I send the soc. sec. versions in a large envelope. What about 1099s/1096. I see nothing on form saying do not fold... can these be folded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gail in Virginia Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 I have sent them in a #10 envelope for several years with no known issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jklcpa Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 You can always take the chance that the machine won't misread any of the information on the forms. However, the 1099 general instructions do say that the 1099s should not be folded, to send them in flat. It's in Item 1 of the section for Paper Document Reporting. https://www.irs.gov/instructions/i1099gi#idm139623138743744 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
