If you have more than one account number with a tax form - you will need to add each account individually.
Apex is required to send tax documents covering the time your taxable Investment Account was cleared by them. You will receive an additional 1099 from M1 covering the time your account has been cleared by us.
You’ll receive a consolidated 1099 for each separate account cleared by Apex Clearing during the year and a single 1099 for all Individual Brokerage Accounts cleared by M1. If you have a Joint Brokerage Account, the primary accountholder will receive a 1099.
If your taxable Investment Account was never cleared by Apex Clearing, you will only receive a 1099 from M1.
Please note: TurboTax contains data import limitations. If there are more than 500 1099-B transactions per return, we recommend utilizing the desktop version of the application. This will allow you to import up to 2,200 transactions from your 1099-B. If the total number of transactions in your 1099-B exceeds 2,200, TurboTax’s import function may not work.
Connecting with H&R Block
Currently only M1 Retirement Accounts integrate with H&R Block. You will not be able to integrate Individual and Joint Brokerage Accounts cleared by M1 to H&R Block.
Select “Federal”, then click on “Add income"
Select “Investments” and “1099-B Sale of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other securities”
Click “Yes” for “Finished adding income?”
Click “Start” and “Other” for “What’s the financial institution on this 1099-B”
Type “Apex” next to “Financial Institution” and select “Apex Clearing Corporation” from the drop-down. Click “Next”
Enter your account number in the “Apex User ID" field.
Apex Password is your Tax ID (usually your social security number). Click “Import”
If the import was successful, you will see a summary of imported transactions.
If you have more than one account number with a tax form - you will need to add each account individually.
