- #tax Update the cost basis for sell-to-cover stock vests using the supplemental 1099 form
- #tax there a reason to delay exercising the ISOs? I was previously thinking that it makes more sense to wait as long as possible because the cash needed for strike could be invested elsewhere. Let that grow, and use a smaller portion of the funds to exercise. However, if there are additional tax implications, seems like ripping off the bandaid makes a lot of sense and get the clock started.
- you should regularly exercise ISOs to get the clock started on LTCG and to spread out your cash outlay, and to mitigate the AMT hit (if any)
- the problem with waiting and then exercising in one big transaction is that your cash outlay will be large, your AMT hit could be large
