Would a 1099-Misc Error correction lead to Audit?

In itself, I don't think there is a probability of an IRS audit. The amended 1099-Misc is reported on the 1096-Annual Transmittal Letter. This is a very common occurrence, that is, a filing of an amended 1099-Misc/1096 Annual Transmittal letter.

I really don't think you should be particularly concerned about this since it was not originated from you, and it is more of a concern to the issuing company.

So, I think there is "Zero" possibility of an audit being triggered from this event itself!
