Go paperless

Log in to your account. On the Your Portfolio page, click Go Paperless.

If you've never accessed your account online, you'll need your account number from a recent statement to register and sign up for paperless delivery. You can manage your communication preferences at any time.

If you hold American Funds through your bank or your financial professional's firm, you’ll need to contact them for paperless delivery options or use an electronic delivery service.

Quarterly and year-end statements: You will receive an email 2 to 3 days after the end of the quarter notifying you that your latest statement is available online.

Account confirmations: When you process a transaction, you will receive an account confirmation via email in 1 to 2 business days.

Prospectuses and reports: You will receive an email notification when prospectuses and annual and semi-annual reports have been updated and are available.

Tax forms: You will receive an email notification as soon as your tax form is available to view and download. For more information on availability, see the tax form schedule in our Tax Center. Keep in mind that not all accounts will generate a form. For more information, refer to our Tax Center FAQ.

You will generally have access to statements for the current quarter and two years prior. Year-end account statements and tax forms are available for the last 10 years or from when you opened your account (whichever is later).
