Instructions for Recipient
The information provided may be different for covered and noncovered
securities. For a description of covered securities, see the Instructions for
Form 8949. For a taxable covered security acquired at a premium, unless you
notified the payer in writing in accordance with Regulations section
1.6045-1(n)(5) that you did not want to amortize the premium under section 171,
or for a tax-exempt covered security acquired at a premium, your payer
generally must report either (1) a net amount of interest that reflects the offset of
the amount of interest paid to you by the amount of premium amortization
allocable to the payment(s), or (2) a gross amount for both the interest paid to
you and the premium amortization allocable to the payment(s). If you did notify
your payer that you did not want to amortize the premium on a taxable covered
security, then your payer will only report the gross amount of interest paid to
you. For a noncovered security acquired at a premium, your payer is only
required to report the gross amount of interest paid to you.
Recipient’s taxpayer identification number (TIN). For your protection, this
form may show only the last four digits of your TIN (social security number
(SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer
identification number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN)). However,
the issuer has reported your complete TIN to the IRS.
FATCA filing requirement. If the FATCA filing requirement box is checked, the
payer is reporting on this Form 1099 to satisfy its chapter 4 account reporting
requirement. You also may have a filing requirement. See the Instructions for
Form 8938.

assigned to distinguish your account.

acquired at a premium.

you did not furnish your TIN or you did not furnish the correct TIN to the payer.

class REMIC. This amount is included in box 1. Note: This amount is not

Box 10. For a taxable or tax-exempt covered security, if you made an election
under section 1278(b) to include market discount in income as it accrues and
you notified your payer of the election in writing in accordance with Regulations
section 1.6045-1(n)(5), shows the market discount that accrued on the debt
instrument during the year while held by you, unless it was reported on Form
1099-OID. For a taxable or tax-exempt covered security acquired on or after
January 1, 2015, accrued market discount will be calculated on a constant yield
basis unless you notified your payer in writing in accordance with Regulations
section 1.6045-1(n)(5) that you did not want to make a constant yield election for
market discount under section 1276(b). Report the accrued market discount on
your income tax return as directed in the Instructions for Forms 1040 and
1040-SR. Market discount on a tax-exempt security is includible in taxable
income as interest income.
