The document discusses income reallocation, which is when a security changes the tax characterization of its distributions after the end of the tax year. This may result in a more favorable tax treatment for investors. Raymond James delays mailing 1099 tax forms for accounts holding securities that have not yet announced their income reallocation, in order to provide the most accurate tax information. Common security types that undergo income reallocation include mutual funds, REITs, and ETFs. While there is no IRS deadline, reallocation adjustments typically slow by late March. Raymond James' practice of delayed reporting allows for capturing reallocations, providing better service than firms that issue early incomplete forms.
