FAQs

Typically forms for retirement accounts, like IRAs, arrive in late January or early February. For non-retirement accounts like Individual, Joint, and Trust accounts, forms typically arrive Mid-February into early March.

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.)

No. Stonebridge does not take custody of your funds and does not send out any Form 1099 documents. You may receive separate copies of Form 1099 or other tax forms from other investments you have with our firm or affiliated companies, such as insurance or annuity contracts. Those too will come directly from the account custodian.
