How to Get a 1099-INT From a Bank?

A 1099-INT is an official tax form from the Internal Revenue Service that banks and other financial institutions use to report annual income from interest-bearing accounts. Financial institutions are required to provide complete 1099-INT forms to account holders who receive ten dollars or more in taxable interest income. If you did not receive a 1099-INT form from your financial institution, there are a few steps you can perform to obtain the form.

Instructions

    • 1

      Contact the banking institution's corporate office or a local branch operating in your area and ask to have the 1099-INT form sent to your mailing address. Provide the bank with any account or identity information.

    • 2

      Register for online account access. Certain financial institutions provide online account access to retrieve pertinent financial information and to perform certain account management tasks.

    • 3

      Log in to your online account and search for an electronic copy of your 1099-INT form. Certain financial institutions may opt to provide the form online for easy retrieval instead of mailing the form. Keep in mind that your financial institution may not provide the form online before January 1 of each year.
