Corrected 1099/1096

[JCH]

My client filed her own 1096 & 1099-int forms for her business, and screwed it up. I haven't corrected 1096's and 1099's before, and I'm confused reading the instructions.

Originally filed were the 1096 with three 1099-int forms. One of the 1099-int's is now corrected to $0.00 -- there was no interest paid.

Do I file a new 1096 reporting one corrected form 1099-int with $0.00?

Many thanks to anyone who can help.

That's right

Do I file a new 1096 reporting one corrected form 1099-int with $0.00?

Exactly. You may wish to refer to pages GEN-6 and GEN-7 of the IRS's "General Instructions for Forms 1099, 1098, 5498 and W-2G" for further guidance and information.
