To whom you paid amounts reportable in boxes 1, 3, and 8 of at least $10 (or at least $600 of interest paid in the course of your trade or business described in the instructions for Box 1. Interest Income on page 2), 2. For whom you withheld and paid any foreign tax on interest, or 3. From whom you withheld (and did not refund) any federal income tax under the backup withholding rules regardless of the amount of the payment. Report only interest payments made in the course of your trade or business including federal, state, and local government agencies and activities deemed nonprofit, or for which you were a nominee/middleman. Report tax-exempt interest, including exempt-interest dividends from a regulated investment company (RIC), only on Form 1099-INT. You do not need to report tax-exempt interest that is original issue discount (OID). Report interest that is taxable OID in box 1 or 6 of Form 1099-OID, Original Issue Discount, not on Form 1099-INT. Canadian nonresident aliens. If you pay U.S. bank deposit interest of at least $10 to a nonresident alien who resides in Canada, you may have to report the interest on Form 1042-S, Foreign Person's U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholding.

This interest is not subject to backup withholding. See the Instructions for Form 1042-S. Exceptions to reporting. No Form 1099-INT is required to be filed for payments made to exempt recipients or for interest excluded from reporting. Exempt recipients. You are not required to file Form 1099-INT for payments made to certain payees including but not limited to a corporation, a tax-exempt organization, any IRA, Archer MSA, or health savings account (HSA), a U.S. agency, a state, the District of Columbia, a U.S. possession, a registered securities or commodities dealer, nominees or custodians, brokers, or notional principal contract (swap) dealers. For additional exempt recipients, see Regulations section 1.6049-4 for more information. Interest excluded from reporting. You are not required to file Form 1099-INT for interest on an obligation issued by an individual, interest on amounts from sources outside the United States paid outside the United States by a non-U.S. payer or non-U.S. middleman, certain portfolio interest, interest on an obligation issued by an international organization and paid by that organization, and payments made to a foreign beneficial owner or foreign payee. See Regulations section 1.6049-5 for more information. Other exception. Do not report tax-deferred interest, such as interest that is earned but not distributed from an IRA. When is a payment made? Generally, interest is paid when it is credited or set apart for a person without any substantial limitation or restriction as to the time, manner, or condition of payment. The interest must be made available so that it may be drawn on at any time and its receipt brought within the control and disposition of the person. For payments made on obligations subject to transactional reporting (for example, savings bonds, interest coupons, and other demand obligations), interest is paid at the time the obligation is presented for payment. For example, interest on a coupon detached from a bond is paid when it is presented for payment. Reporting interest and OID.

Statements to Holders
For each Form 1099-OID you are required to file, you must furnish a statement to the REMIC or FASIT regular interest or CDO holder identified on the form. The statement must contain the information shown on Form 1099-OID, including the legend shown on Copy B of the official Form 1099-OID, and an indication that these items are being furnished to the IRS. The statement also must show the information specified in Regulations section 1.6049-7(f)(2)(ii). In addition, the statement furnished by a REMIC must show, for each calendar quarter, the information specified in Regulations section 1.6049-7(f)(3). Also see Regulations section 1.6049-7(f)(3)(ii) for information that may be required to be reported to a real estate investment trust (REIT) that holds a REMIC regular interest. A single-class REMIC (as defined in Temporary Regulations section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(ii)(B)) must include in the statement the investment expenses paid or accrued during each calendar quarter by the REMIC for which the REMIC is allowed a deduction under section 212 and the proportionate share of those investment expenses allocated to the regular interest holder. The statement must be furnished to holders by March 15. To meet the statement requirement, you may furnish a copy of Form 1099-OID and a separate statement containing the additional information to the REMIC or FASIT regular interest or CDO holder. For information about reporting income to REMIC residual interest holders, see the instructions for Schedule Q (Form 1066), Quarterly Notice to Residual Interest Holder of REMIC Taxable Income or Net Loss Allocation, in the separate Instructions for Form 1066.

Rules for REMICs, FASITs, and Issuers of CDOs

REMICs, holders of ownership interests in FASITs, issuers of CDOs, and any broker or middleman who holds as a nominee a REMIC or FASIT regular interest or CDO must file Form 1099-OID. The form is used to report OID of $10 or more accrued to a REMIC or FASIT regular interest holder or to a holder of a CDO. Also use Form 1099-OID to report other interest accrued to a REMIC or FASIT regular interest holder during the year or paid to a holder of a CDO. You may use Form 1099-INT rather than Form 1099-OID to report interest for an instrument issued with OID if no OID is includible in the regular interest holder's or CDO holder's income for the year. You are not required to file or issue Form 1099-OID for exempt recipients including but not limited to the following. · A corporation. · A broker. · A middleman/nominee. · A financial institution. · Any IRA or Archer MSA. · A tax-exempt organization. For additional exempt recipients, see Regulations section 1.6049-7(c).
