Despite all the advances in electronic technology, we still need to wait until Jan. 31 to get 1099s and W2s, and even then some are delayed further.
I don't mind not getting the formal documents until Jan. 31, but we should at least be able to get the required info earlier online so that we can fill-out the IRS and State forms before then. I mean, if I go to the grocer and forget to get the receipt, I can access my credit card information right away to see how much I spent just a few minutes earlier, so why not be able to access the previous year's info ahead of time?
