Tax season is upon us and we want to help make the process of filing your 2022 income taxes as simple and painless as possible. We’ve created a guide for our members. Here’s what you may need from us to prepare your taxes.
Tax Deadline: April 18, 2023
Form 1099-INT
Who Is This Form For?
Form 1099-INT for each person:
- To whom you paid amounts reportable in boxes 1, 3, and 8 of at least $10,
- For whom you withheld and paid any foreign tax on interest, or
- From whom you withheld (and did not refund) any federal income tax under the backup withholding rules regardless of the amount of the payment.
How To Access It
- Your 1099-INT information was included at the end of your December month-end statement.
- Access it online through online banking or in mobile banking on a mobile browser:
- Select the My Documents tab to access your 1099-INT and all monthly statements

Mortgage Form 1098
Form 1098 is used to report mortgage interest of $600 or more paid by you per loan during the year. If you paid less than $600 in interest you won’t receive a 1098, but instead you can find that information on your year-end statement. You will receive a statement from the institution that holds your mortgage.

- You will receive a Form 1098 in the mail by the end of January (mailed separately if interest expense exceeds $600).
- You can access it electronically within online banking.
Midwest Loan Services
