These forms, such as Form 1099-R or a ‘Consolidated’ Form 1099, will come directly from your account custodian, such as Fidelity Investments or Charles Schwab.
No, not always. You will need to log into your financial accounts to check your document delivery preferences online. If you have selected online or electronic delivery, the custodian will not send you a physical copy and it is your responsibility to download a copy from your online account, print it, and get it to your tax preparer. You may also check your email to see if the custodian emailed you a link to the forms. (Be sure to check your email’s spam folder or junk mail folder if you do not see a notification in your email inbox.)

Those too will come directly from the account custodian.
