Properties owned by multiple entities, investment groups, or LLCs, require separate reviews and approvals. Missing documentation, outstanding reviews, and approval bottlenecks can go unnoticed until deadlines approach.
Exported property data can contain incorrect tax IDs, recipient names, or data mapped to incorrect fields. Finding these mistakes late increases review time and requires manual corrections.
IRIS replaces FIRE this filing season as the only electronic intake system for federal returns. Moreover, federal rules do not automatically apply to all states, creating compliance gaps if not actively monitored.
Zenwork has transmitted 1099s through IRIS since TY 2024. As returns are submitted under Zenwork’s TCC, no IRIS-specific migration or setup is required from your team.
Identify delays across the portfolio caused by returns that require review or approval, filtered by each legal payer. Track rejected or corrected forms without losing sight of work already completed.
Bring 1099 data from your existing accounting systems into Zenwork through the Entrata integration, bulk Excel imports, or APIs. TIN matching and Diagnostic AI tools help identify potential data issues early and can help your team reduce last-minute rework.
Property portfolios operate across multiple states. File supported federal returns through IRIS and manage applicable state filings, including state-only obligations through a connected workflow.
Federal & state routesGet contractors, owners and agents to provide their tax information and access their forms through collection, and delivery options, reducing recurring follow-up requests for property accounting teams.
Assign clear responsibilities and roles with access permissions for form preparation, review, approval, and e-filing responsibilities.
Investigate errors and resolve them using user activity logs, individual return statuses, and submission history.
Not necessarily. The reporting obligation depends on which legal entity is responsible for the payments, not simply the number of properties in a portfolio. When multiple LLCs or other legal entities have reporting obligations, their 1099s must reflect the correct payer information. Zenwork supports centralized reporting across legal payers, with entity-specific reviews, approvals, and filing statuses.
Yes. Zenwork supports an Entrata integration, Excel and CSV imports, secure file transfers, and APIs for bringing existing payment and recipient data into the 1099 reporting process. Property management companies can continue using their existing systems to record payments while managing data validation, preparation, and filing through Zenwork.
Checking recipient names, Taxpayer Identification Numbers (TINs), and required fields before submission can reduce filing errors and subsequent corrections. Zenwork provides IRS TIN matching, field validation, and Diagnostic AI to flag potential mismatches and missing information, giving accounting teams an opportunity to resolve issues before filing.
No. State 1099 reporting requirements can differ from federal rules, including filing thresholds, deadlines, and applicable forms. Some states participate in the Combined Federal/State Filing Program, while others require direct submissions or state-only filings. Zenwork supports these filing routes where applicable, allowing property portfolios to manage federal and state reporting within a connected workflow.
Beginning with the 2027 filing season, IRIS replaces FIRE as the IRS electronic intake system for information returns. Property management companies relying on FIRE-based filing processes will need an IRIS-compatible submission method. Zenwork has experience transmitting 1099s through IRIS and files under its own Transmitter Control Code (TCC), eliminating the need for customers to obtain their own TCC when filing through Zenwork.
