Form 1099 Tax Information

As a reminder, BNY Pershing has increased the frequency of production and delivery of Form 1099 tax statements, which will be delivered weekly beginning January 28, 2026. When you receive your Form 1099 depends on the holdings in your account.

Mailing Schedule

January 28, 2026: accounts with holdings and income that typically do not require reclassification or additional information from issuers. Generally, this includes accounts holding stocks, bonds, and options.1

February 4, 2026: accounts that include mutual funds, REITs and certain equities for which issuers have finalized reporting and BNY Pershing has completed processing.1

February 11, 2026: delivery will continue for accounts that include mutual funds, REITs and certain equities for which issuers have finalized reporting and BNY Pershing has completed processing after the February 4 delivery.2 Pending 1099 Notices will be delivered for accounts where BNY Pershing is still waiting data from issuers or in cases where BNY Pershing has not completed processing and review of all information. The notice will list investments that are awaiting information from issuers or trustees or final review and will indicate the possible delivery date of an investor’s 1099.

February 18, 2026: delivery will continue for accounts that include mutual funds, REITs and certain equities for which issuers have finalized reporting and BNY Pershing has completed processing after the February 11 delivery.3

February 25, 2026: delivery will continue for accounts that include mutual funds, REITs and certain equities for which issuers have finalized reporting and BNY Pershing has completed processing after the February 18 delivery.3

March 4, 2026: delivery will continue for accounts for which BNY Pershing can now include information that has been finalized from issuers of mutual funds, REITs, and remaining unit investment trusts (UITs) and BNY Pershing has completed processing after the February 18 delivery.3

March 11, 2026: all remaining accounts, regardless of whether pending income reclassifications for the account’s income have been received from issuers. This delivery will also include accounts holding complex non-equity securities, such as real estate mortgage investment conduits (REMICs), WHFITs and UITs.3

Corrected 1099 Form will be delivered as needed.  
You may receive a corrected Form 1099. There are several reasons for this—for example, issuers of securities held in your account may provide updated or additional information after your Form 1099 is delivered to you. The IRS requires financial organizations to send corrected forms with revised information as it becomes available.

1. Financial organizations, like BNY Pershing, are responsible for Form 1099 reporting and must rely on issuers of securities for your tax information. BNY Pershing provides tax reporting services on behalf of your financial organization. Holding only these types of securities does not guarantee that your tax statements will be delivered on the indicated date.
2. BNY Pershing’s annual practice is to request and obtain an extension from the IRS to the February 15 date on which we are required to deliver IRS Form 1099 (B, DIV, INT, OID and MISC).
3. BNY Pershing’s 30-day extension to the delivery requirement will accommodate these delivery dates.
