Wisconsin 1099 filing requirements for 2026: state floor still $600
Wisconsin had not conformed to the new federal $2,000 floor for tax year 2026, so the state floor stayed at $600.
The gap band is $600 to $1,999.
A payer inside that band can have a Wisconsin filing obligation and no federal one.
Conformity can change.
Confirm with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue before relying on this for a filing.
Report it regardless.
Schedule C reporting does not depend on a form arriving.
