I have stock but I didn't sell any shares in 2015, do i still have to wait for my 1099 form to finish my taxes?

It depends.

Yes - If your stock holdings pay dividends or any other payouts, you will need to report this information (from your 1099-B and or 1099-DIV) on your tax return.

No - If your stock holdings pay no dividends or any other payouts and you did not sell any shares, then you will not need to report this information on your return.

Thanks, that clears things up. I guess I'll have to wait a little longer before I can plan my honeymoon. 🙂
