Prepare Form 5498 without retyping every return into a portal.
Form 5498, IRA Contribution Information, is commonly used by IRA trustees and custodians. 1099ERICH is designed to help organize IRA contributions, rollovers, fair market value, and participant information in a repeatable desktop workflow.
What the software does
- Imports the required structured CSV or Excel layout for Form 5498.
- Checks imported records for missing or incorrectly formatted information before you create filing files.
- Lets you correct the source spreadsheet and re-import until the validation report is clean.
- Prints recipient copies locally, including masked taxpayer identification numbers where appropriate.
- Creates IRS IRIS CSV upload files in blocks of no more than 250 records for the supported workflow.
Why a dedicated 5498 workflow helps
When you prepare many 5498 returns, a consistent import layout can reduce repetitive typing and make corrections easier to control. Your source file remains on your computer during the normal software workflow, and you upload the final files through your own IRS IRIS access.
