Yes, we'll provide you with the proper tax forms! There are several different kinds of tax forms you may receive from us, depending on how you use Acorns.
For Acorns Invest & Early accounts
If you have an Invest and/or Early account and any of the following apply to you, you'll receive your 1099-DIV/B form by February 21, 2024:
- You received more than $10 in dividends in the previous year
- You withdrew from your Acorns Invest or Early account or sold some of your investments for more than $20 last year
- There were rebalances in one or more of your Acorns investing accounts
You can learn more about the 1099-DIV/B form here.
For Acorns Later accounts
If you're a Later investor and you made a withdrawal from your Later account last year, we'll email you a 1099-R form that lists those withdrawals by February 1, 2024.
You can learn more about the 1099-R form here.
If you made a contribution or rollover to your Later account during the tax year, you’ll get a 5498 form by May 31, 2024. You won’t need to use this form when you file your taxes. It’s just for your records.

For Acorns Checking & Emergency Fund accounts
If you have a Mighty Oak Checking and/or Emergency Fund account and you earned more than $10 in interest last year, you may be taxed.
