Once your platform files your 1099 tax form with the IRS, your form will be available on the Tax Forms page within Stripe Express, provided you’ve agreed to e-delivery.

With paperless delivery, or electronic delivery, your 1099 tax form will be available in Stripe Express as an electronic copy, instead of a paper copy.
