Be Aware of 1099 Revisions

Many of you have called with questions regarding when you will receive your 1099’s for 2017. In an effort to keep you informed with the latest information, please see the below notices we received from SEI and TD Ameritrade.

Be aware, custodians may send up to five correction cycles of 1099’s (see schedule below). This is an industry wide issue, and unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the Custodians and their timelines.

Please note, we strongly advise that you wait at least until March 15th to file your return because of the possibility of corrected 1099’s being issued to you.

If you have any questions please call our office, and see below schedules.
