How to void a 1099-MISC that was filed?

If you filed 1099 for a recipient that should not have been filed, you can void it by filing a 1099 Correction. To do that, 

• Click Start New Form >> 1099 Corrections. 
• Select Tax Year and 1099 Type (1099-MISC).
• Under Recipient & Amount Details Corrections, click Continue.
• Enter the payer and recipient information manually or pull them up from the Address Book.
• Select the VOID checkbox and continue with the flow.
• All the amount fields will automatically be marked as zero, and the IRS will disregard the previously filed 1099-MISC. 

Once transmitted, the corrected copies will be available in the Print Center for download.
