Solved: Brokerage made a mistake on 1099. I contacted them and they are making the fix. I don't think the corrected 1099 form will be available by 4/15. What should I do?

Before April 15th, whatever you expect to owe should be paid with your request for more time to file.

Best way: Go to the IRS Direct Pay page and select EXTENSION.

You will get immediate confirmation.

You can request an extension of time to file. Perhaps you have heard of it.

See IRS website for how to request an extension of time

Thanks! I was aware of that, but I have dues to IRS, and I assume there will be punishment in such a case? I could not find any information about that.
