What the company published for a specific season

A Schwab schedule circulated for the 2025 tax year lists original 1099 Composite availability on January 30, February 13, or February 27, 2026, depending on whether issuer data is in. That PDF is not hosted on schwab.com, so the wave pattern above is the date language we treat as verified from Schwab’s own article.
