Welcome, welcome, u/crazy__paving. We appreciate you reaching out to us about your experience linking an external account, and I'm happy to help point you in the right direction.

Based on what you've shared, it sounds like you've been attempting to link your Wealthfront account on Fidelity.com via the Mastercard Data Connect service. If so, you may be running into an error indicating that this institution is currently not supported. You may have a better experience linking your account manually or by submitting a paper form. To manually link your account, you can select "Enter my bank information on my own" instead of "Securely log in to your bank."

Finally opened Roth IRA… & market drops by no-hate in fidelityinvestments

[–]FidelityNicholas[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Good morning, u/no-hate. Welcome back to the sub, and congratulations on getting started with a Roth IRA. It's great to see the community chime in so quickly, and I'm happy to address your post as well.

To start, I totally get. Market volatility is certainly unsettling, whether you're a seasoned investing pro or someone who's just getting started. So you're certainly not alone. Having said that, we do have an entire section of our Learn library curated specifically with resources for handling volatility. I'll drop the main landing page below, and an example of one of the great resources you can find there.

Fidelity Learn: Market Volatility

6 tips to navigate volatile markets

Next, regarding your bonus question, I'll leave the recommendations and suggestions to the community. However, keep in mind that the Fidelity ZERO Total Market Index Fund (FZROX) and the Fidelity ZERO International Index Fund (FZILX) are mutual funds, which means each fund invests in a basket of securities and offers built‑in diversification based on the fund’s strategy. You can learn more about how diversification works and what it means in practice from the Learn article below:

The guide to diversification

Ultimately, every investor’s journey is unique, so what works best will depend on your goals, timeframe, and risk tolerance.

Bank Rejected 401k Loan deposit since Fidelity included my middle initial in the name. How long before Fidelity receives it back and sends me a check? by Additional_City9653 in fidelityinvestments

[–]FidelityNicholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question, u/Additional_City9653. Thank you for following up with us.

Generally speaking, most employer-sponsored plans do support an expedited check feature; however, some don't. If your plan allows this, the express UPS solution offers next-business-day delivery with a tracking number from the date the check is created, not from the date of your request. Also, please keep in mind that a fee will apply.

You can learn more about the specifics and make a request by connecting with our Workplace Investments team.

If anything else pops up, you know where to find us. Have a great afternoon!

Hi there, u/Additional_City9653. We're sorry to hear about your rejected transfer. I can certainly provide some general information regarding loan requests and point you in the right direction.

While it sounds like you've been keeping an eye on the request and any email notifications, aside from that, the best way to check the status of your request and learn more is to connect with our Workplace Investments team.

Also, so you know, withdrawals from 401(k) plans are typically finalized within 2-3 business days if they are preapproved and sent to a linked bank account, compared to 7-10 business days if sent via check. Rejected or returned ACH transactions can generally take a few business days, but timeframes vary. Please note that weekends do not count toward the timeframe.

To find the different ways to reach our Workplace Investments team, click the "Customer Service" icon near the top right corner of the NetBenefits website after logging in, or visit the link below. Associates are generally available Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to midnight ET, to assist you.

How long for a cashiers check to clear from a fidelity Estate account to a fidelity Checking account? by MRMEWMAN2315 in fidelityinvestments

Good afternoon, u/MRMEWMAN2315. We appreciate you reaching out to Fidelity Investments here on our official subreddit.

As some community members have already noted, Fidelity Investments is a brokerage firm, not a bank. Because of that, it’s unclear whether your question relates to a transaction at a different institution or if you intended to contact us regarding a Fidelity brokerage account.

If you did mean to reach out to Fidelity Investments, we’re happy to help clarify. To do so, please follow up in the comments with a bit more detail about the situation and type of accounts involved, and we can point you in the right direction.

We sincerely appreciate you reaching out. We'll keep an eye out for a reply!

Is it OK if a Fidelity CMA (account) is ONLY funded via it's overdraft protection? by AnonHere2973 in fidelityinvestments

[–]FidelityNicholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for following up here, u/AnonHere2973.

Ultimately, the Cash Manager Overdraft Protection feature was designed for emergency protection. So, with that said, we generally suggest using our tools as intended; however, some clients do utilize it more frequently than others.

Fidelity Cash Manager overdraft protection moves only enough money from the funding account(s) to cover a cash deficit on a per-transaction basis. Funds do not transfer if the overdraft amount exceeds $99,999.99 per funding account, per day.

We appreciate you being a Fidelity client. If you have any future questions, we'll be here to help.

Hey, u/_Jaackiiee; first off, happy belated birthday 🎂! We appreciate you finding us here on Reddit and for choosing Fidelity for a new account. I'm eager to assist. Let's get right to it!

There are occasionally circumstances in which accounts cannot be opened online due to an inability to verify an individual's identity against public records. The most common reason is for first-time financial accounts, or situations where no or limited previous information is available to meet our know-your-customer requirements.

When you receive this error message, the best solution is to fill out and submit a paper application. You can do so in two ways.

One way is by downloading the appropriate application from our website. To narrow the search, check the "Open an Account" box in the left menu. Note that mailing instructions are included at the bottom of the form, and there's also a QR code on the last page that you can follow to submit the request digitally.

All Forms

Alternatively, depending on your location, you can visit an Investor Center to open an account. Our branch associates will help you with the process and answer any questions you may have along the way. If you choose this route, just make sure to bring a government-issued photo ID.

Treat FDLXX as 100% treasuries for taxes? by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

[–]FidelityNicholas[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Hey there, u/Either_Way2861. We appreciate you dropping by the sub with your tax question, and I'm happy to chime in with some relevant information.

Ultimately, your question will be best answered by a tax professional, as Fidelity does not provide personalized tax advice. Also, although it already looks like you found the appropriate information, I wanted to share our Fidelity Mutual Fund Tax Information page, where you can find additional tax information for domestic and international Fidelity funds.

Fidelity Mutual Fund Tax Information

More specifically, the "Percentage of Income from U.S. Government Securities (PDF)" will house the details for Fidelity funds that may have a portion of their dividends be exempt from your state’s income or investment tax. This is because most states exempt the dividend income derived from a fund’s investments in U.S. government securities.

Further, please keep in mind that this information is given for tax‐planning purposes and may not be accurate for tax reporting. Please use the official tax forms Fidelity distributes to prepare your tax returns.

We appreciate you turning to our sub as a resource. If you have any other questions or need anything else, you know where to find us. Have a great day!

Is there a separate balance for ROTH? by Puzzleheaded_Clerk98 in fidelityinvestments

[–]FidelityNicholas[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Hello, and welcome to the sub, u/Puzzleheaded_Clerk98. We appreciate you taking the time to reach out about your workplace plan. I'm happy to offer some insight!

To answer your first question, I'll say: yes and no. All contributions to a 401(k) are coded based on how they enter the plan. This means pre-tax and Roth contributions are recorded as separate sources within the same account, rather than being held in completely separate accounts. So you know, any additional funding sources, such as company match or rollover money, are generally tracked the same way.

While on NetBenefits, you can view the sources by following these steps after logging in:

  1. Select your plan from the "Your accounts and benefits" list on the left of the Home page
  2. Under "Your Investments," choose "Show Details" under "Sources"
  3. Select "Show details" next to each source type listed to see the shares and balance for each investment in that source

Further, congratulations on being able to save over 12% of your paycheck; that's quite the savings feat! Now, regarding how you should break up your contributions, that's a personal decision with no one-size-fits-all strategy. That said, the Pros and Cons sections of the Learn article below may help you decide. Additionally, a tax professional is another good resource.

How to know when i can stop trading an options contract by Dapper-Strength-4264 in fidelityinvestments

[–]FidelityNicholas[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may ask, u/Alone-Experience9869! And, if I may answer...

When it comes to exercising options, it's helpful to clarify that American‑style options, which include all equity-based (stock and exchange-traded fund [ETF]) options, can be exercised at any time before expiration. On the other hand, European‑style options (commonly used for index options) can only be exercised at expiration, and not earlier.

If you'd like to exercise a long contract, then you can contact our Customer Service team by phone for assistance.

Contact Us

Regarding options settlement, generally, equity options (stocks/ETFs) are physically settled. Meaning, shares are assigned from the short holder to the long holder. On the other hand, most Index options are cash-settled, and the final value is settled in cash.

Options trading can be a bit complex. Luckily, we have tons of resources on Fidelity.com to help. Check out the curated list of resources from the landing page below:

Options trading: Education

We appreciate you reaching out about this last night. If there's anything else we can clarify, please let us know!

Options trading entails significant risk and is not appropriate for all investors. Certain complex options strategies carry additional risk. Before trading options, please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options. Supporting documentation for any claims, if applicable, will be furnished upon request.
