1099 correction

[kjm1059]

As the employer, a 1099-MISC was issued incorrectly to an individual  that showed an amount in Box 7 (non-employee compensation) that should have been reported in Box 3, Other income.

A corrected 1099 was sent to the individual showing the amount in Box 3 and the "Corrected" box checked off.

In terms of reporting the correction to IRS, do I simply file a 1096 accompanied by the corrected 1099? And is this reported in paper format?

Any thoughts/recommendations are appreciated.

Again google is your friend.  I think you may want to be on the Quick Books site.
