Are you talking about capital gain distributions? You only get capital gains when you sell something. If you're not selling your portfolio you won't have any capital gains to be taxed.

You do get taxed on dividends if they’re in a taxable account, regardless if you DRIP or not.

I'm talking about capital gain distributions not plain dividends. They're in box 2a on your 1099-Div. I think the original poster might be confusing capital gain distributions with capital gains.

No edit... Saw a smiley face in my text... Don't know how it got there... Don't know how to remove it. It should say form 1099-b
