How Do I Collect a Dividend I am Eligable to Receive?

How do I collect my dividend?

Will it be automatically credited to my trading account, when the pay-out date comes?

Or, Will I need to file something with the company and wait for a check in the mail?

Thanks

 

You have to visit the company at your expense, and demand your dividend from the wallet of the CEO

 

Haha. Good one buddy!

The check's probably already in the mail, right?

 

your broker will collect it and put it in your account per declared dates.

 

EliteTrader?

 

Im new but this form appears to be very mixed!!
