• ETFs organized as unit investment trusts (UITs)*
Shares acquired beginning January 1, 2012: • Mutual funds**
• ETFs organized as regulated investment companies, other than UITs

indebtedness • Options

Vanguard Brokerage Services® is required to
report the gross proceeds from a short sale entered into on or after January 1, 2011, in the year a security is delivered to satisfy the short position, rather than the year the sale occurred.
What’s new for 2011
General information about
your Tax Information Statement
Masking of certain taxpayer
identification numbers (TINs)
Vanguard Brokerage Services is masking Social Security numbers (SSNs) and individual taxpayer identification numbers (ITINs) on IRS Forms 1099 and 5498. Note that employer identification numbers (EINs) won’t be masked in accordance with IRS guidance. We’re making this change to minimize the risk that these identifying numbers could be misappropriated from a tax form and used to facilitate identity theft.Multiple accounts
You’ll receive a separate Tax Information Statement for each brokerage account you hold with reportable activity, as well as for your Vanguard mutual fund holdings that have reportable activity. Note that some Tax Information Statements have later mailing dates than others, so you may receive your Tax Information Statements from Vanguard at different times. For the schedule of mailing dates, please go to vanguard.com/taxschedule.
Transferred accounts
If your account was transferred to or from Vanguard Brokerage during 2011, your statement will only include activity (including income accruals) from the time you conducted business with our firm. Your former firm should provide IRS Form 1099 for activity that occurred before your account was transferred.
IRS publications
and additional information
IRS publications are available by calling the IRS Forms Distribution Center at 800-TAX-FORM or visiting the IRS website at irs.gov. Additionally, the Tax Center area of vanguard.com provides helpful guidance.Corrections
If you believe information on your statement is incorrect, contact Vanguard Brokerage at 800-992-8327. If necessary, we’ll correct the information and mail you a revised statement.
Duplicate Tax
Information Statements
If you request duplicate statements, we’ll mail copies to the address of record for your account.
Exempt accounts
If your account is established as a corporation, unincorporated exempt organization, broker-dealer, bank nominee, retirement trust or plan, endowment, school district, municipality, or hospital, you may be exempt from Form 1099 reporting and backup withholding requirements. If you believe that your account is exempt and you received a Tax Information Statement, contact Vanguard Brokerage at 800-992-8327. Note that Vanguard Brokerage provides clients with a courtesy Form 1099 Consolidated for information purposes only, which includes information for securities held in a tax-exempt coded account. To identify whether a statement is a courtesy Form 1099 Consolidated, refer to the disclosure statement at the bottom of the tax form, which states that this information won’t be reported to the IRS.
Federal income tax withheld
(backup withholding)
If your account is subject to backup withholding, federal law requires us to withhold from reportable dividends, interest, and gross proceeds paid to certain U.S. persons. However, if you’re an exempt recipient, you may be exempt from backup withholding and should consider providing us with an IRS Form W-9 indicating the
exemption. Foreign persons may also be exempt from backup withholding if they provide a completed withholding certificate such as IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8IMY; however, they may be subject to 30% NRA withholding, or a reduced rate if they’re eligible for and claim treaty benefits. IRS Forms 1099-B, 1099-DIV, 1099-INT, and 1099-OID report federal income tax withheld separately. However, when completing your tax return, you should aggregate these amounts on IRS Form 1040, line 62.
Nominee recipients
If your Vanguard Brokerage Tax Information Statement includes amounts belonging to another person, you may be a nominee recipient. Nominee recipients must file Form 1099 with the IRS for each of the other owners of income to show their share of the income, and you must furnish a Form 1099 to each. A husband and wife who file a joint return aren’t required to file a nominee return to show amounts owned by the other. For additional information, see IRS 2011 General Instructions for Forms 1099, 1098, 3921, 3922, 5498, and W-2G.
Payer
For all nonretirement brokerage accounts, Vanguard Marketing Corporation (taxpayer identification number 23-2019846) is the payer for all transactions on your Tax Information Statement (see next section) or Form 1099-MISC. For brokerage IRAs, Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (taxpayer identification number 23-2869268) serves as trustee for all contributions (reported on Form 5498), and as trustee and payer for all distributions (reported on Form 1099-R).
Revised Tax Information
Statements
If Vanguard Brokerage receives any corrected or updated information, we’ll report it to you and the IRS, if required, in a revised statement.
Differences between your
Tax Information Statement and
brokerage account statements
Special reporting rules may result in a difference between your Tax Information Statement and your brokerage account statements. For example, we’re required to report, on your 2011 Tax Information Statement, any Form 1099-DIV mutual fund distributions that were declared in October, November, or December of 2011 but not paid until January 2012.Read before you file
If you held a real estate investment trust (REIT), widely held fixed investment trust (WHFIT), widely held mortgage trust (WHMT), or unit investment trust (UIT) in 2011, we may send you a revised Tax Information Statement. Please be aware that some issuers don’t make their final distribution information available until after January.
Form 1099 Consolidated overview
This is important tax information and is being furnished to the Internal Revenue Service. If you are required to file a return, a negligence penalty or other sanction may be imposed on you if this income is taxable and the IRS determines that it has not been reported.

Section 1 displays your name and masked taxpayer identification number (TIN). Section 2 displays Form 1099-DIV dividends and distributions from stocks and other investments. Elsewhere in the document, we provide the individual dividend payments. Section 3 displays Form 1099-INT interest income paid to you during 2011. Elsewhere in the document, we provide the individual interest payments and accruals.Section 4 displays a summary of proceeds from broker and barter exchange transactions. Amounts shown in this section include gross
proceeds (less commissions) from the sale or redemption of securities. We’re required to report sales transactions to you and the IRS separately, as detailed in the next section, “Form 1099-B: Proceeds From Broker and Barter Exchange Transactions”; however, we provide this summary for your convenience.

Transactions reported on
IRS Form 1099-B
The four transactions commonly reported in this section of your statement are equity sales, Treasury bill sales, sales of notes and bonds, and short sales.
• Equity sales
Proceeds from the sale of equities are reported on a trade-date basis, net of commissions or option premiums.
• Treasury bill sales
To properly report any proceeds from these sales, you should determine which portion is capital gain or loss and which is ordinary income or loss. Your statement reports the discount on Treasury bill maturities in the 1099-INT section as part of Interest on U.S. savings bond and Treasury obligations (Box 3). Refer to examples later in this document for additional information.
• Sales of notes and bonds
The principal portion of the proceeds from these sales is reported in this section. Accrued interest on federally taxable notes and bonds sold between interest payment dates or on a payment date is reported on Form 1099-INT based on the settlement date.
• Short sales
Short sales of specified securities effected on or after January 1, 2011, are reported in the year a security is delivered to close the short position. If you sold securities short, be aware of the constructive sales rules. If your short sale was a constructive sale, the gain is taxable in the year of the short sale (but the loss isn’t recognized). Otherwise, the gain or loss is generally recognized in the year the short sale is covered. The basis Vanguard reports for covered shares is determined without regard to constructive sales and may require adjustment on Form 8949 and Form 1040, Schedule D. Consult a tax professional for additional information on constructive sales. Short sales are identified with a footnote on Form 1099-B.
Trade date versus settlement date
We report sales of publicly traded securities to the IRS on a trade-date basis on IRS Form 1099-B. You should report these transactions accordingly.New cost basis reporting
requirements
Vanguard is required to report cost basis information to the IRS on Form 1099-B for shares acquired on or after the dates listed in the table below (covered shares). Shares that aren’t covered (noncovered shares) may also contain cost basis information, but we won’t report this information to the IRS. Effective dates for covered shares
Shares acquired beginning January 1, 2011:
• Stocks*
• ETFs organized as UITs*
Shares acquired beginning January 1, 2012:
• Mutual funds**
• ETFs organized as regulated investment
companies, other than UITs
• Stocks acquired through a dividend
reinvestment plan (DRIP)
Shares acquired beginning January 1, 2013:
• Bonds, debentures, other evidence of
indebtedness
• Options
6 of 41
** If your stock or ETF organized as a UIT is part of a dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP), it’s not considered covered until January 1, 2012.
New boxes
Boxes 1b, 3, 5, 6, and 8 have been added to Form 1099-B to report cost information for securities covered under recent legislation. (Box 1b) Date of acquisition
The box will be blank if the securities sold were acquired on a variety of dates, or if box 6 is checked. For a short sale, we’ll report the acquisition date of the security delivered to close the short sale.
(Box 3) Cost or other basis
Shows the adjusted basis of a security when available.
(Box 5) Wash sale loss disallowed
Shows the amount of nondeductible loss in a wash sale transaction. A wash sale occurs when you sell a security at a loss and within 30 days before or after the sale you acquire a substantially identical security (see Cost basis adjustments on page 10).
(Box 6) Noncovered security
If this box is checked, boxes 1b, 3, 5, and 8 may be blank.
(Box 8) Type of gain or loss
Provides the holding period of the security sold. Long-term capital gains are derived from the sale of assets held for more than one year, while short-term gains are derived from the sale of assets held for one year or less, excluding the day you acquired the investment but including the day of the sale.
New layout
In addition to the new boxes, Form 1099-B will now have up to five separate sections to clearly identify whether the basis is reported to you and the IRS, reported only to you, or isn’t available. These separate sections are created based on the activity in your account and will make it easier for you to complete the new Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets.
Section 1: Short-term transactions for which basis is reported to the IRS
Report on Form 8949, Part I, with Box A checked.
Section 2: Short-term transactions for which basis isn’t reported to the IRS
Report on Form 8949, Part I, with Box B checked. The information in boxes 1b, 3, 5, and 8 reflects Vanguard’s records and won’t be reported to the IRS. You’re solely responsible for the recordkeeping and accuracy of this information.
Section 3: Long-term transactions for which basis is reported to the IRS
Report on Form 8949, Part II, with Box A checked.
Section 4: Long-term transactions for which basis isn’t reported to the IRS
Report on Form 8949, Part II, with Box B checked. The information in boxes 1b, 3, 5, and 8 reflects Vanguard’s records and won’t be reported to the IRS. You’re solely responsible for the recordkeeping and accuracy of this information.
Section 5: Transactions for which basis isn’t reported to the IRS, and for which short- or long-term determination is unknown (to Vanguard).

Example of new transactional reporting
If you had four purchases of 600 shares of an individual security over time, and sell all 600 shares in one transaction, the trade may no longer be reported to you as one sale but instead it must be separated into the applicable sections on the 1099-B. You’ll then need to report it in the correct sections of Form 8949, and also check the correct box.* After you’ve completed Form 8949, you’ll need to transfer the totals from columns E, F, and G to the corresponding columns on Form 1040, Schedule D.

Default methods
Vanguard applies default cost basis
accounting methods unless you’ve selected a specific method. We use average cost for mutual funds, and first in, first out (FIFO) for other holdings. You may wish to consult a tax advisor to determine the most appropriate method for you to use.
Cost basis adjustments
Vanguard is required to make certain adjustments to the initial cost basis of covered securities acquired in the account. We’ll adjust the basis of securities for commissions and transfer taxes related to the acquisition of the security. We’ll also adjust the basis for any organizational actions reported by the issuer. However, we generally won’t make adjustments for transactions, elections, or other events occurring outside the account.
Wash sales. Under tax rules, the deduction for a loss realized on the sale of a security is disallowed if, within 30 days before or after the sale, a substantially identical security is acquired. Any loss that’s disallowed is added to the basis of the newly acquired shares. Vanguard will adjust the basis of securities held in the account for losses that are disallowed due to a wash sale, but only if the wash sale is as a result of an identical security (a security with the same CUSIP) purchased in the same account. You must make adjustments to the basis of a security if a wash sale occurs as a result of:
• the purchase of a substantially identical security that isn’t an identical security. • a purchase that occurs in a different
account than the sale.
Other adjustments we’ll make. Vanguard will adjust the basis of a covered security issued by a regulated investment company or real estate investment trust which has undistributed long-term capital gains during the year.
Adjustments we won’t make. Vanguard doesn’t consider constructive sales or mark-to-market adjustments in determining the holding period of securities sold for a gain or loss.
Cost basis adjustment factor
For certain investments that are classified as WHFITs, we’re required to provide your proportional interest in the cost basis associated with transactions by the trust. You’re required to report this information on Schedule D of Form 1040. We provide the basis for these transactions in the form of a cost basis adjustment factor. Your basis can be determined by taking the product of this factor and your cost basis for your interest in the trust.Regulated futures contracts
Although you’re only required to report the aggregate profit or loss from these contracts on Form 6781, Gains and Losses From Section 1256 Contracts and Straddles, we must report this information on Form 1099-B as follows: (Box 10) Profit or (loss) realized in 2011 on closed contractsThe profit or loss realized on closed regulated futures contracts in 2011.
(Box 11) Unrealized profit or (loss) on open contracts—12/31/2010
(Box 12) Unrealized profit or (loss) on open contracts—12/31/2011
The amount is based on the contract’s year-end market value.
(Box 13) Aggregate profit or (loss) on contracts
The aggregate profit or loss of all your regulated futures contracts activity.
You can calculate this figure based on information from your statement, as in the following example:
(Box 10)–(Box 11)+(Box 12)=Box 13 ($210.69)–$70.56+($500)=($781.25) Report total aggregate profit or loss on IRS Form 6781, line 1; then transfer that figure to IRS Form 1040, Schedule D, according to the instructions for IRS Form 1040.

Form 1099-DIV: Dividends and Distributions
Dividends and other distributions fromcorporations, mutual funds, unit investment trusts (UITs), and real estate investment trusts (REITs), as well as income derived from money market funds, are reported in this section of your Tax Information Statement (see example later in this section). (Box 1a) Total ordinary dividends
Ordinary dividends paid by corporations, mutual funds, REITs, and certain UITs, including net short-term capital gains, are fully taxable. Include this amount on line 9a of Form 1040 or 1040A and attach Schedule B if required. Subtotals for both U.S. and foreign source ordinary dividends appear at the end of the detailed section.
(Box 1b) Qualified dividends
These are distributions paid to you by domestic and qualified foreign corporations for which you met certain minimum holding period requirements. They’re taxed at a maximum rate of 15% (0% for individuals in the 10% or 15% tax bracket).
Note that some dividends reported to you in Box 1b may not be qualified dividends because you may not have met certain minimum holding period requirements:
• General rule. Must be held for more
than 60 days during the 121-day period that begins 60 days before the ex-dividend date. The ex-dividend date is the first date following the declaration of a dividend on which the seller and not the buyer of a stock will receive the next dividend payment. When counting the number of days you held the stock, include the day you disposed of the stock but not the day you acquired it.
• Preferred stock. Must be held for more
than 90 days during the 181-day period that begins 90 days before the ex-dividend date if the dividends are due to periods totaling more than 366 days. If the periods total less than 367 days, the holding period in the general rule applies.
The following aren’t qualified dividends:
• Capital gain distributions.
• Dividends paid from money market and
bond funds.
• Dividends from tax-exempt corporations.
• Dividends paid on employer securities
held in an employer stock option plan (ESOP).
• Dividends on any share of stock to the
extent that you’re under an obligation (including a short sale) to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property.
• Payments received in lieu of dividends.
Dividends paid by foreign corporations generally aren’t qualified unless the foreign corporation is (1) incorporated in a U.S. possession, (2) eligible for benefits under a comprehensive income tax treaty with the U.S. that the Treasury Department has determined is satisfactory for the purpose of determining qualified dividend status, or (3) readily tradable on an established securities market within the U.S. (Note: Dividends paid by passive foreign investment companies [PFICs] aren’t qualified.)
For more information, see IRS Publication 550, Investment Income and Expenses, and the instructions for Form 1040.
(Boxes 2a, 2b, 2c, and 2d) Capital gains distributions
See the Capital gain distributions section of this guide for further information.
(Box 3) Nondividend distributions These are distributions from a corporation to you that aren’t paid out of earnings and profits, are treated as return of capital, and generally aren’t taxable. They reduce the cost basis of your stock; however, the amount that exceeds your adjusted basis is reported as a long- or short-term capital gain on Schedule D, depending on your holding period. (Box 4) Federal income tax withheld This includes the amount of backup withholding remitted to the IRS on certain payments if you didn’t provide a taxpayer identification number that matches
government records or if we’ve been notified by the IRS that you’ve underreported your interest and dividends in a prior year. See Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification, for information on backup withholding. Include this amount on your IRS Form 1040, line 62, as tax withheld.
(Box 5) Investment expenses
These represent your portion of expenses from a nonpublicly offered, regulated investment company, such as a mutual fund. You may deduct them on the “Other expenses” line of Schedule A (Form 1040), subject to the 2% limit. This amount is also included in Box 1a, Total ordinary dividends. (Box 6) Foreign tax paid
Total ordinary dividends are reported on IRS Form 1040, Schedule B, line 5; and Form 1040, line 9a. Qualified dividends are reported on IRS Form 1040, line 9b. (See the illustration below.)

Special rules for owners of mutual
funds, REITs, and UITs
Since these investments generally pass through certain beneficial tax attributes of their distributions to their shareholders, they must first obtain tax information from their holdings before they can determine such benefits. As a result, information on these benefits is often not available when we send your initial Tax Information Statement. If it becomes available later, we’ll send you a revised statement.
The income classification reported on your statement may not agree with the amount of distributions you received during the year for the following reasons:
• Dividends declared by mutual funds
and REITs in October, November, and December but not paid until the following January are considered received by shareholders on December 31.
• Income from UITs is reported on the
Tax Information Statement in the year it’s earned by the UIT, which may not coincide with its distribution. Separate entries show income received in cash and income accrued. Income earned by the UIT but not yet distributed is shown as a separate entry labeled “Accrued income.” UITs that don’t have accrued income may be reported with a single entry for cash. Income from taxable UITs may be reported on Form 1099-DIV, INT, or OID of your statement, depending on the nature of the income.
(Box 8) Cash liquidation distributions and (Box 9) Noncash liquidation distributions Generally, liquidation distributions are treated as amounts received from the sale or exchange of a capital asset and should be reported on IRS Form 1040, Schedule D (Capital Gains and Losses).

Total capital gain distributions from a mutual fund or REIT are included in this section and are always long-term. Report them on Form 1040, Schedule D, line 13, as shown below, regardless of how long you held the investment. If your capital gain distribution contains additional classifications, your statement will include a separate section titled “Capital Gain Distributions” and will include the following information:
• (Box 2b) Unrecaptured Section 1250
gain—The amount in Box 2a that is an unrecaptured section 1250 gain from certain depreciable real property.
• (Box 2c) Section 1202 gain—The amount
in Box 2a that is a section 1202 gain from certain small business stock.
• (Box 2d) Collectibles (28%) gain—
The amount in Box 2a from the sale or exchange of collectibles that are capital assets.
If your statement contains amounts in any of these sections, refer to the instructions for IRS Form 1040, Schedule D (Capital Gains and Losses), for information on how to report this income.
OR
If your only capital gains and losses are capital gain distributions reported in Box 2a and no amounts are reported in Box 2b, 2c, or 2d, you may be able to avoid filing Schedule D by reporting these distributions directly on IRS Form 1040, line 13. See the instructions for IRS Form 1040 for more information.
Sample statement
Form 1099-INT: Interest Income
