BTS Posted March 2, 2024 Report Posted March 2, 2024 Ours is the 1099-SA and 1099-INT's. With the 1099-SA being number one. Close third is the year end investment forms (1099-DIV, 1099B's). With those, clients seem to forget to bring us "ALL" pages of those statements. Always just the page showing showing interest and dividends. Always missing the 1099B part. And its always the same clients no matter how many times you remind them. But the 1099-SA and INT are our most. 5 Quote

Catherine Posted March 2, 2024 Report Posted March 2, 2024 Detail pages for dividends - the crucial bits, that show the foreign amount (for foreign tax credit), the federal percentage of dividends, the state breakdowns for tax-exempt interest or dividends, etc. No, I don't need or want the "preliminary" or "summary" statement that's 6 pages. I want the 28-page extravaganza that looks like boilerplate mixed with gobbledygook to the client. And the 5498s. Not exactly a form, but the bursar's office printout for all college costs. 6 1 Quote
Yvonne Posted March 2, 2024 Report Posted March 2, 2024 This year everything! If the clients head wasn't attached we would have to ask for that also! LOLOL! 4 Quote
Gail in Virginia Posted March 2, 2024 Report Posted March 2, 2024 1095-A. Whether they have a subsidy on their insurance or not, I have got to have that form or the return will not go through on e-file. Year after year, they "forget". 6 Quote
Corduroy Frog Posted March 3, 2024 Report Posted March 3, 2024 1098-T. Many of the forms are scarce because the issuers want to bail out of printing them and paying postage. When you ask the client, either he doesn't know he has them, or else you get: "Oh yeah, I've got that right here on my phone!!" [Scroll...Scroll...Scroll...Scroll 95 more times] 20 minutes later they hand you the phone which you can barely read. "Can you print this out?" "Oh no we don't have a printer anymore. We keep everything on our phone!!!" 2 1 1 2 Quote
GLJEANNE Posted March 3, 2024 Report Posted March 3, 2024 I'd go with 1099-SA, but also yes, those dividend pages. Amazes me that the same people who will upload both sides of W2s and every other form that jst has garbage on the back, but don't upload the rest of the 1099-DIV pages. Everything with numbers please! And of course, that "proof" that the kids live with them. 4 Quote
mcbreck Posted March 4, 2024 Report Posted March 4, 2024 While the PIN isn't overly common, 90% of people who got the protection pin lose the letter from the IRS and we have to paper file. 4 Quote
joanmcq Posted March 7, 2024 Report Posted March 7, 2024 I've had a lot less of forgetting all the dividend pages since I've had my portal and more clients are getting their 1099s in PDF form. They just upload the PDF and voila! I've got it all. 6 Quote
jasdlm Posted March 8, 2024 Report Posted March 8, 2024 Clients always think they're doing me a 'favor' by only giving me the 'important pages'. ***SIgh*** 5 Quote
joanmcq Posted March 9, 2024 Report Posted March 9, 2024 I've been getting back only one or two signature forms this year. Just got an AZ-8879 but no federal or CA. A few days ago got NY & PA but no federal. Quote
