First Time Filers Quick Reference Guide
The law requires any corporation, partnership, employer, estate and/or trust, who is required to file 250 or more information returns, Forms 1042-S, 1097, 1098 Series, 1099 Series, 3921, 3922, 5498 Series, and W 2G, for any calendar year, must file electronically via the Filing Information Returns Electronically (FIRE) System using a Transmitter Control Code (TCC). The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) encourages filers who have less than 250 information returns to file electronically as well.
To obtain a TCC to file information returns electronically, go to Information Returns (IR) Application for Transmitter Control Code (TCC) on the Filing Information Returns Electronically (FIRE) webpage located at .
Submit an IR Application for TCC by November 1st of the year before information return(s) are due to ensure you're ready to electronically file. Allow 45 days for processing. An IR Application for TCC received after November 1st may not be processed in time to meet your electronic filing needs. All IR Applications for TCC are subject to review before the approval to transmit returns electronically is granted and may require additional documentation at the request of the IRS. Applications approved will be assigned a TCC. Notice of the assigned TCC will be sent by U.S. Postal Service to the mailing address provided on your IR Application for TCC. You can also view your TCC on the IR Application Summary page. If the IRS finds the electronically transmitted documents are invalid, the IRS has the authority to revoke the TCC and stop the release of files. Refer to Part B. Sec. 1, Information Returns (IR) Application for Transmitter Control Code (TCC).
File Format ? The format must conform to the specifications found in Part C. Record Format Specifications and Record Layouts. To transmit files electronically through FIRE, you must have software, a service provider, or an in-house programmer that will create the file in the proper format per the requirements and record layouts in this publication. To find software providers, perform an internet search with the keywords, "Form 1099 software providers." Scanned, PDF, PNG, TIF, GIF, JPG, Word, Excel formats will not be accepted.
Test Files ? Filers are not required to submit a test file; however, the IRS encourages the submission of a test file for all new electronic filers to test hardware and software. Refer to Part B. Sec. 5, Test Files. A test file is needed only when applying to participate in the Combined Federal/State Filing Program. Refer to Part A. Sec. 12, Combined Federal/State Filing Program.
Note: The FIRE Production System and FIRE Test System do not communicate. You must create and keep a separate account for each FIRE Account.
Common Problems - Review Part B. Sec. 6, Common Problems, to avoid common FIRE Account processing or formatting errors before submitting your file. Only one Transmitter Control Code (TCC) is required if you're only filing Forms 1097, 1098, 1099, 3921, 3922, 5498, and W-2G. The TCC is used to catalog files as they are received. The forms listed in Publication 1220 require a single TCC. There is no need to request an additional TCC.
