OPM Delivery Method Changes for 1099-R Forms

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has updated its delivery policy for the 1099-R form. Annuitants who have provided an email address will receive their 1099-R forms electronically, unless they opt to receive them by mail through their OPM online account. Individuals without internet or computer access should contact OPM’s Retirement Services to request a mailed copy of their 1099-R forms. Annuitants can change their delivery preference by visiting their Retirement Services Online Account or by calling the Retirement Services hotline at 1-888-767-6738 to request a mailed copy.

If you do not have an email address linked to your OPM record, they will mail a form out at the end of January or by mid March.
