My Fidelity 1099 has been available on line for a couple of weeks.

Depends if underpayment warrants a penalty or not.

My plan was 110% of previous year, but 2019 will be first year doing Roth conversions so it should be big total tax due

After I make a rough draft of my tax returns in late January or early February (after getting the last 1099), I put them away for a few weeks. When I look at them again, I then try to pretend I am reviewing them for the first time as a check on my own work. Also, a subsequent review I try to do differently, such as by hand instead of relying totally on my spreadsheet. Matching my previous work tells me I very likely haven't made any mistakes. Still, a third review in late March gives me more confidence I got it all correctly.

In years where I expect a jump in income compared to the prior year, I default to the 110% of prior years taxes safe harbor and then reevaluate for Jan Q4 estimated payment if it looks like I might end up overpaying.

BTW I haven’t paid any penalties at all, because I always meet the annualized quarterly criteria including paying at least 90% of taxes owed by Jan 15 of the following year.

Maybe Fido vs. VG? I got my VG 1099 with VTIAX before the end of January as well.

Just got notice that our last Fidelity brokerage 1099 is available. So DH will start downloading into TurboTax and get most of it done.

But what took them so long last year was the % foreign source income numbers. Needed that to complete our foreign tax credit forms.

I'm surprised folks are getting multiple 1099's from same brokerage firm. We got one from Schwab & one from Fidelity. Yes, one account at both.

We get a 1099 from each taxable account we have at Fidelity. For taxable we have two brokerage accounts and a cash management account. Each account has a separate 1099 generated.

Edited to add: I get two from Schwab as well, a 1099-INT from Schwab Bank, and a 1099-combined from the Schwab brokerage account.

OMG... just shoot me.

What gets me is that it is almost scary how easy tax prep is getting. 99+% of our income is imports from Vanguard, Fidelity and my pension provider and with the higher standard deduction we no longer itemize. Then it is just a matter of reviewing to see if the imports are correct.... less than an hour soup to nuts.

I was surprised last year that California State software itemized deductions even though Federal used standard deductions. Some states do that.
