The financial institution should have provided you with an annual IRS Form 5498 Statement which reports information about individual retirement accounts and other tax-preferred savings accounts.
Form 5498 is filed with the Internal Revenue Service and a copy is also sent to the person who owns the account. Essentially, Form 5498 provides independent confirmation to the IRS of the amounts you contributed to IRAs and other tax-preferred savings accounts.
Be sure to go through your prior year tax returns to see if you kept your copy with your return(s).
