Not receiving a Robinhood 1099

You might not receive one because you made less than $10 in dividends, or you might have held onto your investments and didn't sell any during the year. Also, if Robinhood gives you a stock less than $600, you might not receive a 1099, but you'll still need to report this to the IRS.

Form 1099-R discloses both full and partial retirement distributions, including rollover contributions, and any taxable amounts. Form 5498 reports IRA contributions, amounts rolled over from other types of retirement accounts to your IRA, RMDs, and the FMV of the account at the end of the previous tax year.

The new ”$600 rule”

Under the new rules set forth by the IRS, if you got paid more than $600 for the transaction of goods and services through third-party payment platforms, you will receive a 1099-K for reporting the income.

Do I Need a 1099 Form to File Taxes? Taxpayers must report any income even if they did not receive their 1099 form. However, taxpayers do not need to send the 1099 form to the IRS when they file their taxes.

Taxpayers should first contact the employer, payer or issuing agency directly for copies. Taxpayers who haven't received a W-2 or Form 1099 should contact the employer, payer or issuing agency and request a copy of the missing document or a corrected document.

Why didn't I get a 1099 from my brokerage account? ›

You'll only get it for certain account types

Exempt registrations, such as corporations, money purchase pension plans, profit-sharing plans, certain types of trusts, and charities.

Don't stress the IRS.

If you receive a Form 1099-B and do not report the transaction on your tax return, the IRS will likely send you a CP2000, Underreported Income notice. This IRS notice will propose additional tax, penalties and interest on this transaction and any other unreported income.

Form 1099-R is issued when a taxpayer doesn't make the required loan payments on time. When this occurs, the amount not repaid is considered a distribution and is usually reported on Form 1099-R with the distribution code L.

The IRS employs various methods to detect discrepancies in tax reporting, including the absence of 1099 forms. While the IRS does not catch every missing 1099 immediately, their sophisticated systems and data-matching capabilities make it likely that discrepancies will be identified over time.
