Anyone Get Your 1099 Social Security Tax Forms In The Mail Yet

I understand they are supposed to come by the end of January, but they were also supposed to start mailing them the end of December.

I'm a 4th week direct depositor so mine may be later coming.

Next thing is to see if Krasnov cut the funds for the people at my senior center who file my taxes. I used to do my own through the mail with paper, but getting my return takes a lot longer that way.

They can be sent anytime after the first business day in January but the "supposed to" is by January 31.
They're supposed to be sent so they are delivered by that date, but a payor could sent them out on the 29th with a reasonable expectation that will get there by the 31st. But, that clearly isn't guaranteed.
So, it would not be unlikely to get 1099 & W-2 forms in early February.
Because I sub in so many schools I get W-2s filtering in between about now and the 3rd of 4th of February.
That's why I never even get things organized for tax preparation until around the 5th.
The 1099s for my IRA, our SS, my wife's small pension all come in earlier but usually not much before right now.
I would be shocked if all my documents were already received.

If I knew I was a communist agitator self-employed contrator, I'd have asked for more money.
