Steps

One Vanguard gotcha. Your 1099 tax forms mail to the address on file. Update before year-end so tax season paperwork reaches you.

Menus change, so confirm on Vanguard’s site.

Worth knowing for investing accounts

Brokerages mail tax documents (1099s) to the address on file. A stale address means missing tax season paperwork.
Some address changes at brokerages trigger a short hold on outgoing transfers; do this early, not during a trade.
