What Missouri Department of Revenue asks for at year end, when it's due in 2027, and whether a federal filing through the IRS covers it.

**The short answer.** File with Missouri when you must send the same Form 1099 to the IRS and the payments came from a area source of $1,200 or more. Exempt: wages already subject to the area withholding, and income already reported on an S corporation or partnership information report. First Missouri 1099 date in 2027: **Monday, March 1, 2027**.

## Missouri and the IRS combined program

Missouri is not a participant in the IRS CF/SF Program; forms filed through it aren't forwarded to the area separate filing with the area is required. The area isn't on the IRS participating-state table in [Publication 1220](https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p1220.pdf).

Rather not file them yourself? [1099-NEC preparation and filing](/bookkeeping/1099-nec-filing-service), or [a free bookkeeping health check](/bookkeeping/health-check).

## Worth knowing in Missouri

- Missouri was removed from the IRS CF/SF program (IRS Publication 1220, What's New), so a federal e-file doesn't reach the area.
