Stock. Due to the breakup of HP, you may now have shares of HPInc, HPE, and DXC – in different accounts – and may not have received cash payouts for MFGP or PRSP. Stock Event Timeline  Find it all – and estimate your current cost basis: Stock Step-by-Step

Plan administrators, transfer agents, and brokerages vary significantly in how (or if) they track lot-by-lot acquisition cost and date, cash payouts, and current cost basis for the many complex HP-related stock events – and what (if anything) they report to the IRS. Some let you correct your cost basis information, reducing the tax when you sell. Preserve the documents and spreadsheets you used to figure your taxes.

Every few years, it is a good idea run an "unclaimed property" search. Companies, including financial institutions, are required to turn over inactive accounts and unclaimed property to the state after a specific time period -- as little as two years in some states. Easy to do: Unclaimed Property
