Form 5498 is an informational form given by the IRS to the contribution and account balance of retirement accounts. It is provided by the banks, brokerages and financial institutions which handle IRA. Form 5498 is not filed by the taxpayers, but it is forwarded directly to the IRS. The form is usually released after the deadline of the tax filing due date as it contains the contributions that were made till April 15. Though not necessary in filing taxes, we should have Form 5498 in your records so as to be used in claiming contributions and accuracy on retirement planning.
