IRIS Migration Readiness

Important: The IRS is permanently shutting down the FIRE system on December 31, 2026. All 1099 e-filing must transition to the new IRIS system.

When evaluating any filing provider, make sure they can handle the FIRE→IRIS transition. Here's what BoomTax delivers:

  • IRIS A2A Filing — Full support since tax year 2024
  • Accepts FIRE-Format Files — Upload your existing Pub. 1220 files as-is
  • Automatic FIRE→IRIS Conversion — We convert to IRS IRIS XML behind the scenes
  • No Code or Format Changes Required — Your workflow stays exactly the same
  • IRIS Error Code Handling — Full error translation and resolution guidance
  • Combined Federal/State via IRIS — File once, we forward to participating states
