2019 U.S. GOVERNMENT INCOME INFORMATION

2019 U.S. GOVERNMENT INCOME INFORMATION

Income Information

This information is being provided to assist in your 2019 state income tax returns.

Many states do not tax the portion of your fund's ordinary distributions that comes from U.S. Treasury securities and obligations issued by many agencies of the U.S. government. The accompanying table lists the percentage of the fund's ordinary distributions that was derived from these U.S. government obligations. GNMA and FNMA securities are not included as U.S. government obligations.

In California, Connecticut and New York, mutual fund dividends attributable to interest on U.S. government obligations are exempt from state income tax only when a mutual fund meets certain quarterly minimum investment thresholds in certain government securities. If a fund listed in the accompanying table did not meet these minimum requirements for these states, it is marked with an asterisk (*). Since there could be additional states with exemption requirements, and because state laws vary, be sure to consult your state tax authority or tax advisor before excluding any of your distributions from state or local tax returns. Please note that our service representatives cannot provide tax advice.

If your fund did not pay an ordinary income distribution in 2019, or if your fund is not listed in the table below, this exclusion is not applicable. Applicable information is also printed on the back of the tax forms mailed to Columbia funds non-corporate shareholders. Corporate shareholders may be subject to different state income tax requirements and should consult their tax advisor regarding these requirements.

How to Calculate Your State Tax Benefit

Step 1: For each fund you owned during 2019, multiply the amount in Box 1a, "Total ordinary dividends," on your Form 1099-DIV by the percentage in the accompanying table in order to calculate the amount of U.S. government income that may be exempt from your state and local taxes.

Please note that the accompanying table may include tax-exempt funds, which invest in state and local government bonds. If a taxexempt fund that you owned during 2019 is listed, the percentage in the table should be applied only to your tax-exempt fund's total ordinary distributions as described above and not to your fund's tax-exempt distributions included in Box 11 of Form 1099-DIV.

Step 2: To determine how much of your distribution is taxable, simply subtract your exempt income (calculated in Step 1 above) from the total amount shown in Box 1a of your Form 1099-DIV.
