There’s no wait, worry or wondering about your dividend check when you choose to have it deposited electronically into your checking or savings account.

Electronic deposits go directly into your specified account the same day dividends are paid. You’ll save time and eliminate the risk of your check being lost, stolen or misplaced.

There is no charge for electronic deposit.

Important information about protecting your Alliant Energy Corporation stock from escheatment:

Alliant Energy Corporation is required to “escheat” (report and transfer to a state unclaimed property division) your shares in Alliant Energy Corporation and/or uncashed dividend checks if they are considered abandoned property under relevant state law. Several factors might cause your shares and/or dividend checks to be considered abandoned property, such as: returned mail, lack of contact with our transfer agent (EQ Shareowner Services) on an annual basis, or uncashed checks. Once your shares and/or dividend funds have been escheated, you will need to file a claim with the relevant state for the return of your property.

What can you do to help prevent the escheatment of your shares/dividends? Maintain activity on your account via annual communication with EQ Shareowner Services either by phone, mail, email, or by logging into your shareowner account on their website at shareowneronline.com to verify your account information. In some states, voting your proxy also counts as contact for unclaimed property purposes. Please be sure to keep your address up to date and promptly cash all dividend and sale proceeds checks.
