How to Access and Download Your Tax Forms
When you hold an account with Embark, you may receive annual tax documents that report investment income, gains/losses, contributions, or distributions made during the previous tax year. These forms are prepared and issued by Betterment for Advisors, our technology and custodial partner, and are available securely through your Embark online portal.
You will receive an email notification when your tax forms are ready—typically by mid-February for most tax forms, including 1099s. Some documents, like Form 5498 (IRA contributions), may become available later in the year, but are not required to file your tax return.
To access your tax forms, go to www.Embark-Invest.com and log in to your account. Navigate to the “Documents” option in the bottom left of your screen. Then select the “Taxes” tab at the top of your screen. All available tax documents will be listed by year and account type. Click on the PDF icon or download link to save the form to your device.
