Not Able to Import Form 1099 from Citi Personal Wealth Management (Pershing LLC) into TT

I was able to import Form 1099s from other financial institutions into TurboTax, but not one from CITIBANK/Citi Personal Wealth Management.  Is this a common issue for Citi customers?

Have you tried a different browser like Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome? Many people have stated using Edge and removing the pop-up blockers has helped. Please let us know if you are successful using a different browser.

 

You may need to contact customer service directly for assistance. Please see the following information here for more details.

Thank you!

I am using  TT Desktop, not TT Online.

When I try importing Citi Personal Wealth Mgmt. 1099, the error message says: You may have entered the wrong User ID or password or your account may be locked.  When I try importing Citibank.com (Investment Accounts Only), the error message says: User id password combination incorrect.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can try.

Thanks again!!

Thank you!

Is this a known issue? Perhaps the Intuit side of the download is not working??

This is not a known issue. Were you able to give us a call so we can better look into this?

Same thing happens to me.  It says username and password is incorrect.  I logged in several times before and after trying to import from Citibank/Turbotax so I know the username/password is correct.  Any updates on this?

I gave up and entered manually.  If you were able to find out how to fix it, please let me know as I want to import directly next year.

Same issue. I tried all the different versions of Citi (Wealth management, private bank, etc) and all gives errors. This also happened last year.

I called Citi they said you have to go to Profile, More Settings, and Apps with Account Access to give Turbo Tax access but I can't find an option to authorize it. Still trying to figure that portion out.

Have you given the access within your Citi account to Intuit/Turbo Tax? @abba123

Yes, but Citibank does not require such access approval.

This is a real bug in Turbotax PC Desktop/CD install edition.

I wish they would treat this as a serious issue and investigate it

 

The Import feature does NOT WORK with regular Citibank accounts on citi.com

There seems to be a bug in the Turbotax Import code which cannot handle the newer security flows on citi.com website.

I can login to the website on a web browser Online Banking, Mortgages, Personal Loans, Investing | Citi.com but the same credentials don't work with Turbotax import function.

 

I have also tried this procedure/step:

On your browser, first Iogin to Citi.com. After you've logged in, go to Profiles, click More Settings.

Now you will see a "Security" section the center column. Click on Manage Desktop Apps. Click on the blue button on the bottom of the page, "Allow Access". Now, a "Timer" for 10 minutes will start. 

You have to go back to Turbotax Desktop/PC app and try the Import procedure all within the 10 minutes.

 

I believe this is the mechanism Turbotax is using for Citi.com accounts.

 

However, like I said, its still NOT WORKING.

 

I have successfully Imported 4 other Broker accounts/Vendors but it just doesn't work for Citi.com

 

Turbotax devs, pls fix this Citi.com Import bug!

I tried to "Manage Desktop Apps" on citi.com this year, but it still didn't work.  The Citi person I talked to said there are many who have the same issue.

I have the same issue. My wealth manager thinks it should be fixed by the end of this week (03/08/24.)

If you are using TurboTax Online, try importing using a different browser.

 

See the following TurboTax Help articles for potential fixes:

I figured out my situation. I usually login via citi.com because I also have a bank account with Citi. I registered a new login at https://investments.citi.com/pwm and I was able to import on TurboTax using that login.
