I vested a good number of stock options at my previous employer and after resigning I submitted the necessary paperwork to purchase these options. It has now been six months since the paperwork was submitted and I've yet to receive any document stating that I own shares in the company. The check I sent hasn't even been cashed. So I've got a few questions:
- is there a certain amount of time in which the employer has to give a me some sort of legal document stating that I own shares or can they take however long they want?
- what are the tax implications of getting the shares sooner rather than later? If the company goes public or gets bought 8 months after I get the shares rather than a year after I get them I'll have to pay more in taxes, right?
