IRS Form 1042-S & W-8 2021 Update: Foreign Person's U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholding - Information Reporting for Nonresident Aliens

Form 1042-S & W-8 - What's New and Who Must File?

Form 1042-S reports the Foreign Person’s U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholding, including non-resident aliens, foreign corporations, foreign partnerships, foreign trusts, and foreign estates - subjected to income tax withholding. The IRS imposes and timely increases the penalties, if you intentionally use incorrect information or if you don't file it in time. This training will be a start-to-end guide for taxpayers to report the amounts paid to foreign persons (including those presumed to be foreign) by a U.S based business or institution.


You can use Form 1042-S to report taxable federal payments and federal tax withholding considering incomes received by U.S. nonresidents: royalty and non-employee prize payments, independent contractor service payments, and scholarship/fellowship tax reportable income - but under what circumstances? Where does Form W-8 come in and how does it affect your reporting? Why does W-8 have so many variants, which one would you consider, and what does the recent one include?


The IRS works to minimize the burden taxpayers go through every tax year. Although businesses and companies are getting familiar with 1099 reporting and its non-compliance consequences, identifying and performing backup withholding on NRAs is still a complicated task for most companies and their advisors.


Do you know what happens if you fail to deduct from payments to Nonresident Aliens (NRAs)? What's your plan to deal with IRS demands for backup withholding? Collecting the tax due from NRAs working in the U.S. is an IRS Tier 1 audit issue. This training will help you understand the withholding implications including the ones under section 5000C for Federal procurement payments paid to foreign persons.


How can you minimize this tax burden? How can companies making payments to NRAs for both dependent and independent personal services properly withhold on these payments? Join us on Compliancevent to find out.


This training is essential for all professionals in the industry, NGO’s, schools, public practice, and government who are responsible for filing or overseeing information reporting compliance and related issues.
