The tax slips everyone should know about
March 30, 2022
It's important to become familiar with these tax slips to better prepare for tax return time.
Download (PDF 54 KB)While the deadline to file your individual tax returns isn’t usually until April 30, it’s always a good idea to get organized ahead of time. To help with your planning, we’ve included an overview of some of the key tax slips or reports you may receive based on common account types.
Most of these slips will come within the first three months of the year. Many are now delivered electronically—often uploaded to your investment firm or broker’s online client portal—though some can still come in the mail.
As for who sends them? It’s usually the custodian—the trust company, bank, or other institution you have investments and money with—but they can also come directly from a mutual fund company or your investment advisor. If you haven’t received anything, or aren’t sure where to look, call your advisor or your investment firm for help.
