Form 1099-INT (keep for your records) www.irs.gov/form1099int
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 taxexempt covered security acquired at a premium, your payer may 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 identification number. For your protection, this form may show 

only the last four digits of your 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 identification number 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 to 

Form 8938.

Account number. May show an account or other unique number the payer

assigned to distinguish your account.

Box 1. Shows taxable interest paid to you during the calendar year by the payer. 

This does not include interest shown in box 3. May also show the total amount 

of the credits from clean renewable energy bonds, new clean renewable energy

bonds, qualified energy conservation bonds, qualified zone academy bonds,

qualified school construction bonds, and build America bonds that must be 

included in your interest income. These amounts were treated as paid to you 

during 2015 on the credit allowance dates (March 15, June 15, September 15, 

and December 15). For more information, see Form 8912, Credit to Holders of 

Tax Credit Bonds. See the instructions above for a taxable covered security 

acquired at a premium.

Box 2. Shows interest or principal forfeited because of early withdrawal of time

savings. You may deduct this amount to figure your adjusted gross income on

your income tax return. See the instructions for Form 1040 to see where to take 

the deduction.

Box 3. Shows interest on U.S. Savings Bonds, Treasury bills, Treasury bonds,

and Treasury notes. This may or may not all be taxable. See Pub. 550. This

interest is exempt from state and local income taxes. This interest is not 

included in box 1. See the instructions above for a taxable covered security 

acquired at a premium.

Box 4. Shows backup withholding. Generally, a payer must backup withhold if

you did not furnish your taxpayer identification number (TIN) or you did not 

furnish the correct TIN to the payer. See Form W-9. Include this amount on your 

income tax return as tax withheld.

Box 5. Any amount shown is your share of investment expenses of a singleclass REMIC. If you file Form 1040, you may deduct these expenses on the

“Other expenses” line of Schedule A (Form 1040) subject to the 2% limit. This

amount is included in box 1.

Box 6. Shows foreign tax paid. You may be able to claim this tax as a deduction 

or a credit on your Form 1040. See your Form 1040 instructions.

Box 7. Shows the country or U.S. possession to which the foreign tax was paid.

Box 8. Shows tax-exempt interest paid to you during the calendar year by the 

payer. Report this amount on line 8b of Form 1040 or Form 1040A. This amount 

may be subject to backup withholding. See box 4. See the instructions above 

for a tax-exempt covered security acquired at a premium.

Box 9. Shows tax-exempt interest subject to the alternative minimum tax. This

amount is included in box 8. See the Instructions for Form 6251. See the 

instructions above for a tax-exempt covered security acquired at a premium.

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, shows the market discount that accrued 

on the debt instrument during the year while held by you. Report this amount on 

your income tax return as directed in the instructions for Form 1040 or 1040A. 

Market discount on a tax-exempt security is includible in taxable income as 

interest income.

Instructions for Recipient (Continued)

Box 11. For a taxable covered security, shows the amount of premium 

amortization allocable to the interest payment(s), unless you notified 

the payer in writing in accordance with Regulations section 1.6045-1

(n)(5) that you did not want to amortize bond premium under section 

171. If an amount is reported in this box, see the instructions for Form 

1040 (Schedule B). If an amount is not reported in this box for a 

taxable covered security acquired at a premium, the payer has 

reported a net amount of interest in box 1 or 3, whichever is 

applicable. If the amount in this box is greater than the amount of 

interest paid on the covered security, see Regulations section 1.171-2

(a)(4).

Box 13. For a tax-exempt covered security, shows the amount of 

premium amortization allocable to the interest payment(s). If an 

amount is not reported in this box for a tax-exempt covered security 

acquired at a premium, the payer has reported a net amount of 

interest in box 8 or 9, whichever is applicable. If the amount in this 

box is greater than the amount of interest paid on the tax-exempt 

covered security, the excess is a nondeductible loss. See Regulations 

section 1.171-2(a)(4)(ii).

Box 14. Shows CUSIP number(s) for tax-exempt bond(s) on which 

tax-exempt interest was paid, or tax credit bond(s) on which taxable

year. If blank, no CUSIP number was issued for the bond(s).

Boxes 15—17. State tax withheld reporting boxes.
