Financial institutions are having to deal with a new set of challenges in tax information reporting. Cheryl Riedlinger, noted tax attorney and head of the Tax Reporting Group, recently identified three new headaches for tax professionals:

  • Changes to IRS policy regarding W-8 forms, which are causing FIs to repaper their client bases
  • New developments in de minimis corrections, an issue the PATH Act has arguably made worse
  • Accelerated deadlines, seemingly a trend that will continue

Riedlinger will present on these topics and more at the Sovos Global Compliance Summit in Florida in October. Sovos has produced a white paper based on her recent observations with advice on how companies can overcome reporting challenges.
