Disney Vacation Club makes a tax error

Some Disney Vacation Club Member received an email that they would be receiving this updated form by mail. Are you affected by this error?

Disney Vacation Club

DVC is short for Disney Vacation Club. It is a timeshare run by Disney. Unlike other timeshares DVC has the flexibility of a point system.

You can book the time of year you travel and type of accommodation, including your resort of choice. With this style of timeshare you are not stuck in a particular week every year. You purchase an allotment of points that you can then choose to spend however you would like.

Newest Addition To DVC

Disney Vacation Club is updating the Big Pine Key building. This building is currently non-DVC. It will be converted to about 200 studios!

Disney Vacation Club describes it: These modern, sophisticated accommodations will sleep up to 5 Guests and offer luxe touches like quartz countertops, ornate crown molding and patterned tile. Resort Studios* also feature a flat-screen TV, a beverage center with a beverage cooler and coffee maker, and marble tile floors in the bathroom.

This newest addition to DVC will go on-sale to current Members on March 3, 2022.

DVC Sends Email

On March 1st some DVC members received an email regarding an incorrect 1098 Tax form. This is what the email stated:

Dear Valued DVC Member,
