According to the IRS rules, creditors have to send you form 1099-C - Cancellation of Debt by January 31, 2017 (for tax year 2016).

Creditors also have to file forms 1099-C together with form 1096 by February 28, 2017.

Please refer to this IRS document for more information (especially the table starting on page 24:(
