No, you don't have to wait for the 1099-NEC forms from the IRS. If you're required to issue 1099-NEC forms to independent/outside contractors, TurboTax can generate the forms using the TurboTax Quick Employer Forms.
In most circumstances, you are required to issue Form 1099-NEC when you pay $600 or more in any year. to an independent contractor.
