Retail Tax Form Mailing Schedule:
Raymond James will mail retail composite Form 1099 tax statements in three main groups. The date your form will be produced typically depends on the holdings in your account, as detailed below. You will not receive documents for IRA accounts that had no contributions, withdrawals, rollovers, or conversions.
*All Forms 1099 must be mailed by March 15 regardless of any pending adjustments or income reallocation per IRS regulations. Amended mailings will occur as needed.
As a reminder, if a Form 1099 is delayed from the first mailing, it will be sent in either the February 28 or March 15 mailing, depending on when we receive all necessary information from the securities issuers and determine the form is complete.

Amended 1099 Mailing
- As needed – Mailing of amended 1099s (primarily due to additional income reallocation)
Delays Expected for Tax Season
In an effort to control amended 1099s, we currently expect to delay the mailing of 1099s that meet the following criteria:
- 1099s for accounts that hold securities that have not 100% reallocated or could potentially have income reallocation (such as mutual funds, real estate investment trusts, unit investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, and holding company depository receipts, and select equity securities)
- 1099s for accounts that hold Original Issue Discount (OID) bonds, including select municipal bonds
- 1099s for accounts that hold specific 45-day delay Mortgage-Backed Securities which are reportable based on the record date (i.e. Record on 12/31, payable on 2/15)
- Specific expected cost basis adjustments
