I think you may be confusing what happens with 1099NEC within the tax program and what IRS does with 1099NEC mailed in with F1096.     Yes IRS does match the mailed in Form 1099s (MISC, INT, NEC, G, etc) with tax returns.    No IRS does not match the 1099s that have been entered in the tax program with what's been mailed in.
