2016 capital gains and income distributions

To assist you with your tax filing, below is a link to the 2016 actual capital gain distributions, annual income distributions, and certain calendar year-end income distributions (as applicable) that are associated with your investments in certain John Hancock funds. These reflect actual capital gains and income distributions; they are updates to estimates that we issued on a preliminary basis for tax planning purposes prior to the end of 2016.

To calculate your taxes, please refer to Form 1099-DIV that you should have received from John Hancock Investment Management. Forms were mailed in early 2017.

If you need further assistance, please contact your financial professional and/or tax advisor, or call one of our Customer Service Representatives at 800-225-5291, Monday through Thursday, between 8:00 A.M. and 7:00 P.M., and Friday between 8:00 A.M. and 6:00 P.M., Eastern time. You can also visit our tax center on jhinvestments.com, where distribution and related tax information is posted, as it becomes available.
