Interesting story. My Mom, also was "Wachovia" and now is a Wells Fargo customer.
You mentioned, you have 1099 Int Wachovia. (how do you know the int. was from the Cd?).
You mentioned 2008, Wells took over. The tax statement, would combined 1099/cap gains. You said, no 1099 int.
It appears, the CD was redeemed in 2007? Since it disappeared in 2008.
I would focus my efforts on the year 2007. Something happened that year. Would be great, if you were able to obtain, monthly statements, from Wachovia for the 2007 year. It would show the CD, and when or if it was redeemed.
If no redemption. Then in year 2008, when Well took over, it got lost.
Good luck.
There is a Wachovia 1099-INT for 2008 (as far back as I have her taxes) and 2009. The reason I know the INT refers to the burial CD is because 'BURIAL RESERVE' is right on the 1099-INT. Wells Fargo would have been responsible for the 2010 1099-INT.
I don't have her 2010 taxes to check for a Wells Fargo 1099-INT. Nothing from Wells Fargo in 2011 or beyond. I called the IRS and talked to a human about getting a transcript. Because they are short-staffed and behind, the IRS is only sending out transcripts for recent years for people trying to file their taxes and get their AGI. She said the limit is 10 years so I'm still under the wire. I also called her tax accountant to see if he did her 2010 taxes. I also need to check an older computer to see if I did her 2010 taxes.
