107% SECEION 107, £ RITY INFORMANTS AND CONFIDENT : SOURCES 4, Four-month evaluation of informants not paid on Bureau authority If the informant is not being paid on Bureau authorization, a communi~ ( cation must. be transmitted to the Bureau every four months after the ‘ date of designation containing the same information set out above in subsection 3b except those items concerning payments. Recommendation -of SAC regarding continuance of informant shovld also be set forth UAGCB. In espionage and foreign nationality cases comment is necessary regarding only those applicable items in subsection 3b. 7 4 5. Receipts ; . - When peyments are made to anyone for information or assistance on security matters, either on the SAC’'s authority or on prior Bureau approval, receipts must be obtained in every instance in which it is possible to do so, If 2 receipt cannot be obtained for a particular payment, complete circumstances should be set forth on the blue slip at the time reimbursement is claimed. a. Receipts should be of such a nature that they will be self-sufficient so that, if it becomes necessary to introduce the receipts in evidence during the course of a trial, the receipts will not relate to other documents or files. b. Receipts shovld clearly show: 1) Date on which payment was made 2) Period for which made when informant is paid on a period basis 3) Total amount paid broken down into separate amounts for services or expenses where these items are pertinent {3} Name of Agent making payment 5 Signature of person receiving the money c. Receipts arc not to be witnessed by another Agent. d. If necessary to make corrections on the receipts, such corrections must be initialed by the informant and not by the Agent. e. When transmitting receipts and itemized statements of expenses to the Bureau, they should be stapled directly to the blue slip, leaving a margin of at least one inch to one and one-half inches at the top to avoid contact with the Acco fastener punch, The staples should be placed in such a manner that the date or other data appearing on the receipt will not be mutilated and all information on the receipt can be easily read without detaching it from the blue slip. Care must be taken that receipts are of such 2 nature that they clearly show payment of money and do not refer to any other documentary material contained in Bufiles. 6. Income tax returns a. Informants who receive compensation for their services to the Bureau . should be advised that such compensation must be reported as income - ; when filing an income tax return, _t [b.] Bureau income should be set forth under item 5 on: page one of the | { - Federal income tax return, form 1040, and explained under part V,[3,] ° schedule B, of the return as income received from other sources Por personal services rendered through a private enterprise or similar - general term applicable to informant's position and station in life. {c. If the informant is self-employed and files a schedule C as a self- employed individual, it may be possible to include his Bureau income with his self-employed income from other sources without revealing connection with the Bureau. . - oo | d. Effective 1-1~65, in those instances in which the informant cannot a report payments received from the Bureau for services without jeop- ardizing his security as an informant, such payments will be subject - to a 20 per cent withholding tax. There are four categories of - - circumstances in which taxes will not be withheld. ‘axes are not to a: be withheld from payments made (1) to other than security informants | and souroes, (2) for reimbursement of expenses, (3) under SAC authority, or (4) to informants who have been able to ‘report Bureau : income on their Federal tax returns without jeopardizing their security or without challenge from the Internal Revenve Service, Each office has detailed instructions and exhibits concerning the procedure to be followed in the handling and control of money withheld.
