Corduroy Frog Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Assume FROG Mutual Fund dividends are $100, with $90 being "Qualified".. I am accustomed to seeing Dividends reported in the following manner: Frog Dividends $100, Qualified Dividends $90. But now I am seeing a 1099-DIV as follows: Frog Dividends $10, Qualified Dividends $90. Has something changed this year, or is the issuer of the 1099-DIV improperly reporting?

BrewOne Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 started seeing them last year. Not proper, according to instructions for Boxes 1a and 1b (specifically says to include amounts in box 1b in 1a total). The brokers probably just want to keep us on our toes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issuer is a major stockbrokerage company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corduroy Frog Posted February 26 Author Report Share Posted February 26 Tom, it might be the biggest one out there -- Schwab. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Wow, obviously Schwab's reporting system isn't categorizing the dividends properly. They merged with, or bought out, Ameritrade during 2023, so I suspect that this error may be related to that and that a correct form will be issued. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Normal Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 My Schwab 1099 is fine. It even says that line 1 includes 1b, 2e and 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished entering a Schwab consolidated form. There are very few Qualified Dividends (800 non- qualified, 27 qualified). Looking at the supplemental schedule the funds are mostly US based and it just looks a little funky. The return is going to be on hold for a little bit while the client gets some more documents. HMMMMM..... Tom Longview, TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying it is wrong, I am just saying that I normally see about 50-75% qualified dividends in a normal portfolio of mostly domestic stock funds.

I had one client who, for 6-7 years, got corrected forms in mid-May that were always major corrections. That client got put on extension & we filed after corrected forms arrived. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 That brokerage may still be that messed up; elderly clients passed on, which stopped the issue for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
