2020 Tax Forms Are in the Mail

The IRS requires The Standard to file Form 1099-R by Jan. 31 of the year after a taxable distribution. Your clients should receive their 1099-R forms, which report distributions from annuities, no later than the second week in February.
We will not send a 1099-R in two situations:
- If a distribution was a non-taxable event, such as a qualified transfer between financial institutions
- If the client didn’t take a distribution in 2020
While we do our best to ensure that the 1099-R is correct, your clients should review the form for accuracy. We suggest checking the gross distribution, taxable amount and IRS distribution code. The information on the back of Form 1099-R can help clients better understand each field.
