Filing requirements

Federal filing through the IRS Combined Federal/State Filing (CF/SF) Program satisfies Idaho's 1099-INT reporting requirement for tax year 2026. No separate state submission is required when the IRS forwards the record to Idaho under CF/SF.

Idaho participates in the IRS Combined Federal/State Filing (CF/SF) Program (state code 16) and 1099-INT is one of the eligible forms. When you opt into CF/SF, no separate Idaho submission is required for 1099-INT unless Idaho income tax was withheld. If Idaho tax was withheld, file Form 967 (Idaho Annual Withholding Report) by January 31; the 1099-INT itself can be uploaded via TAP by February 28.

Deadlines and extensions

Filing deadline
Federal e-file deadline
Holiday/weekend rollover. If the deadline falls on a weekend or a federal holiday, the next business day generally applies. Check with Idaho for the exact observed calendar before filing.

Accepted format

Federal filing through the IRS Combined Federal/State Filing Program satisfies Idaho's 1099-INT requirement. No separate state submission is required, so there is no state-specific file format to conform to. The IRS transmits 1099-INT records to Idaho automatically after accepting the CF/SF submission.

Registration

Registration required: Yes

An active EIN paired with an Idaho withholding account number is required to e-file information returns through TAP. Filers without an Idaho withholding account number do not file 1099s through Idaho directly; they either route via the Combined Federal/State Filing Program or, when no Idaho withholding is present, file Form 96 (paper).

Late-filing penalties

Idaho penalty overview

Late information return penalty: $2 per W-2 / 1099 per full or partial month overdue, minimum $10, maximum $2,000 (Idaho 1099 E-Filing Guide; Idaho State Tax Commission Form 967 page).

Late tax penalty / interest on amounts owed: minimum $10, maximum 25% of tax due, plus daily interest from the Form 967 due date until paid.

Failure to e-file when required: Idaho requires e-filing of W-2/1099 forms whenever the IRS requires e-filing (10 or more information returns). "If you're required to file electronically but don't, we'll reject the Form 967 and consider you a non-filer."

Additional notes

Idaho participates in and encourages the IRS Combined Federal/State Filing (CF/SF) Program — Idaho state code 16. CF/SF satisfies Idaho's 1099 filing obligation when there is no Idaho withholding. When Idaho income tax was withheld on a 1099, the filer must still submit Form 967 (Idaho Annual Withholding Report) by January 31, either via TAP or on paper, regardless of whether the 1099s themselves were transmitted via CF/SF. Direct e-file goes through TAP using the IRS Publication 1220 layout with an Idaho-specific RV Record appended to the Payer C Record. Idaho requires e-filing when the IRS does (10 or more information returns). 1099s themselves are due February 28; W-2s and Form 967 are due January 31.

Idaho's stand-alone 1099 filing (without withholding) is required for forms tied to Idaho-source activity: 1099-INT (Idaho-source interest), 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC (services performed in Idaho or property in Idaho), 1099-B (property located or service performed in Idaho), 1099-C (secured property in Idaho), 1099-S (Idaho real estate), 1099-A, 1099-G, W-2G (Idaho gambling activity). 1099-R is required only when Idaho income tax was withheld. 1099-K is accepted but not separately enumerated as required absent withholding.
