can't connect to Charles Schwab to download 1099 Composite Form

deepsky999 — Sun, 22 Feb 2026 04:31:38 GMT

It is Feb 21 today, I still could not connect to Charles Schwab to import my 1099 Form. Keep getting following error message:

Something unexpected happened and we can’t connect to Charles Schwab & Co., Inc..

Try again in a few hours. (590)

Have been seeing for last two days no matter when I tried. Anybody see this and do you have a solution on it?

Some have received a message from Charles Schwab saying downloads would be enabled on Feb 27th.

If you received a "Success" message but your data hasn't appeared in TurboTax, it is likely due to recent browser security updates regarding Local Network Access.

To fix this you need to allow TurboTax to securely retrieve your data through your browser settings:

Locate the View Site Information icon (the "tune" or "lock" icon) on the far left of your address bar, just before the URL.
Find Local Network Access in the dropdown menu.
Toggle the switch to ON.
Refresh the page and attempt your import again.

If permissions aren't the issue, one of the following factors may be at play:

Brokerage Delays: While most forms arrive by January 31, many brokerages delay Consolidated 1099s (like the 1099-B) until mid-February due to complex reporting requirements.
Availability: Your brokerage must specifically "release" the import file to TurboTax. If it isn’t ready, we recommend checking back.
Connection Blocks: Active VPNs or aggressive Anti-Virus software can occasionally block the import feature between your bank and TurboTax. Try disabling them temporarily or switching to a different browser.
