<br />show only the last four digits of your TIN (social security number (SSN), individual
<br />taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN), or
<br />employer identification number (EIN)). However, the issuer has reported your complete
<br />TIN to the IRS.
<br />Account number. May show an account or other unique number the payer assigned to
<br />distinguish your account.
<br />Payer’s Routing Transit Number (RTN). A payer may include the RTN to identify the
<br />bank or financial institution where your account is held.
<br />Backup Withholding. Shows backup withholding. Generally, a payer must backup
<br />withhold if you did not furnish your taxpayer identification number. See Form W-9 and
<br />Pub. 505 for more information. Report this amount on your income tax return as tax
<br />withheld.
<br />Nominees. If this 1099 form includes amounts belonging to another person, you are
<br />considered a nominee recipient. You must file as the “payer” the respective Form 1099
<br />(DIV, INT, or OID) Copy A (with a Form 1096) to the IRS for each of the other owners
<br />as recipient(s) to show their allocable share of the income and you must furnish the
<br />respective Copy B Form(s) and amounts to each owner. A spouse is not required to file
<br />a nominee return to show amounts owned by the other spouse. See the General
<br />Instructions for Certain Information Returns.
<br />FATCA filing requirement. If the FATCA filing requirement box is checked, the payer
<br />is reporting on Form 1099 to satisfy its chapter 4 account reporting requirement. You
<br />also may have a filing requirement. See the Instructions for Form 8938.
<br />Keep tax documents for your records.

<br />Line 3. Shows a return of capital. To the extent of your cost (or other basis) in the stock,

<br />1099-INT Instructions for Recipient
<br />The information provided may be different for covered and noncovered securities. For a
<br />description of covered securities, see the Instructions for Form 8949. For a taxable
<br />covered security acquired at a premium, unless you notified the payer in writing in
<br />accordance with Regulations section 1.6045-1(n)(5) that you did not want to amortize
<br />the premium under section 171, or for a tax-exempt covered security acquired at a
<br />premium, your payer must generally report either (1) a net amount of interest that
<br />reflects the offset of the amount of interest paid to you by the amount of premium
<br />amortization allocable to the payment(s), or (2) a gross amount for both the interest paid
<br />to you and the premium amortization allocable to the payment(s). If you did notify your
<br />payer that you did not want to amortize the premium on a taxable covered security, then
<br />your payer will only report the gross amount of interest paid to you. For a noncovered
<br />security acquired at a premium, your payer is only required to report the gross amount
<br />of interest paid to you.
<br />Line 1. Shows taxable interest paid to you during the calendar year by the payer. This
<br />does not include interest shown in line 3. May also show the total amount of the credits
<br />from clean renewable energy bonds, new clean renewable energy bonds, qualified
<br />energy conservation bonds, qualified zone academy bonds, qualified school
<br />construction bonds, and build America bonds that must be included in your interest
<br />income. These amounts were treated as paid to you during the calendar year on the
<br />credit allowance dates (March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15). For
<br />more information, see Form 8912. See the instructions above for a taxable covered
<br />security acquired at a premium.
<br />Line 2. Shows interest or principal forfeited because of early withdrawal of time savings.
<br />You may deduct this amount to figure your adjusted gross income on your income tax
<br />return. See the Instructions for Forms 1040 to see where to take the deduction.
<br />Line 3. Shows interest on U.S. Savings Bonds, Treasury bills, Treasury bonds, and
<br />Treasury notes. This may or may not all be taxable. See Pub. 550. This interest is
<br />exempt from state and local income taxes. This interest is not included in line 1. See the
<br />instructions above for a taxable covered security acquired at a premium.
<br />Line 4. Shows backup withholding. Generally, a payer must backup withhold if you did
<br />not furnish your TIN or you did not furnish the correct TIN to the payer. See Form W-9.
<br />Include this amount on your income tax return as tax withheld.
<br />Line 5. Any amount shown is your share of investment expenses of a singleclass
<br />REMIC. This amount is included in line 1. Note: This amount is not deductible.
<br />Line 6. Shows foreign tax paid. You may be able to claim this tax as a deduction or a
<br />credit on your Form 1040 or 1040-SR. See your tax return instructions.
<br />Line 7. Shows the country or U.S. territory to which the foreign tax was paid.
<br />Line 8. Shows tax-exempt interest paid to you during the calendar year by the payer.

<br />tax-exempt covered security acquired at a premium.
<br />Line 9. Shows tax-exempt interest subject to the alternative minimum tax. This amount
<br />is included in line 8. See the Instructions for Form 6251. See the instructions above for
<br />a tax-exempt covered security acquired at a premium.
<br />Line 10. For a taxable or tax-exempt covered security, if you made an election under
<br />section 1278(b) to include market discount in income as it accrues and you notified your
<br />payer of the election in writing in accordance with Regulations section 1.6045-1(n)(5),
<br />shows the market discount that accrued on the debt instrument during the year while
<br />held by you, unless it was reported on Form 1099-OID. For a taxable or tax-exempt
<br />covered security acquired on or after January 1, 2015, accrued market discount will be
<br />calculated on a constant yield basis unless you notified your payer in writing in
<br />accordance with Regulations section 1.6045-1(n)(5) that you did not want to make a
<br />constant yield election for market discount under section 1276(b). Report the accrued
<br />market discount on your income tax return as directed in the Instructions for Forms
<br />1040. Market discount on a tax-exempt security is includible in taxable income as
<br />interest income.
<br />Line 11. For a taxable covered security (other than a U.S. Treasury obligation), shows
<br />the amount of premium amortization allocable to the interest payment(s), unless you
<br />notified the payer in writing in accordance with Regulations section 1.6045-1(n)(5) that
<br />you did not want to amortize bond premium under section 171. If an amount is reported
<br />in this line, see the Instructions for Schedule B (Form 1040) to determine the net
<br />amount of interest includible in income on Form 1040 or 1040-SR with respect to the
<br />security. If an amount is not reported in this line for a taxable covered security acquired
<br />at a premium and the payer is reporting premium amortization, the payer has reported a
<br />net amount of interest in line 1. If the amount in line 11 is greater than the amount of
<br />interest paid on the covered security, see Regulations section 1.171-2(a)(4).
<br />Line 12. For a U.S. Treasury obligation that is a covered security, shows the amount of

<br />in writing in accordance with Regulations section 1.6045-1(n)(5) that you did not want to
<br />amortize bond premium under section 171. If an amount is reported in this line, see the
<br />Instructions for Schedule B (Form 1040) to determine the net amount of interest
<br />includible in income on Form 1040 or 1040-SR with respect to the U.S. Treasury
<br />obligation. If an amount is not reported in this line for a U.S. Treasury obligation that is a
<br />covered security acquired at a premium and the payer is reporting premium
<br />amortization, the payer has reported a net amount of interest in line 3. If the amount in
<br />line 12 is greater than the amount of interest paid on the U.S. Treasury obligation, see
<br />Regulations section 1.171-2(a)(4).
<br />Line 13. For a tax-exempt covered security, shows the amount of premium amortization
<br />allocable to the interest payment(s). If an amount is reported in this line, see Pub. 550 to
<br />determine the net amount of tax-exempt interest reportable on Form 1040 or 1040-SR.
<br />If an amount is not reported in this line for a tax-exempt covered security acquired at a
<br />premium, the payer has reported a net amount of interest in line 8 or 9, whichever is
<br />applicable. If the amount in line 13 is greater than the amount of interest paid on the
<br />tax-exempt covered security, the excess is a nondeductible loss. See Regulations
<br />section 1.171-2(a)(4)(ii).
<br />Line 14. Shows CUSIP number(s) for tax-exempt bond(s) on which tax-exempt interest
<br />was paid, or tax credit bond(s) on which taxable interest was paid or tax credit was

<br />bond(s).
<br />Lines 15-17. State tax withheld reporting lines.
