NEW BRIEFING PAPER
New briefing paper explains Jobs Bill impact on financial firms In this Special Report, CCH Principal Securities Law Analyst Jim Hamilton, JD, LLM, explains new requirements for foreign financial institutions imposed by the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE), HR 2847. The Act passed the House on March 4, 2010, by a vote of 217 to 201. The Senate passed the measure on March 17 by a vote of 68 to 29.

The Act creates a vast new reporting and taxing regime for foreign financial institutions with U.S. accountholders. Under Title V, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, the legislation casts a wide net in search of undisclosed accounts and hidden income. It adds a new Chapter 4 to the Internal Revenue Code, essentially requiring foreign financial institutions to identify their customers who are U.S. persons or U.S.-owned foreign entities and then report to the IRS on all payments to, or activity in the accounts of, those persons. These new reporting obligations for financial institutions will be enforced through the imposition of a 30-percent U.S. withholding tax on a wide range of U.S. payments to foreign financial institutions that do not satisfy the reporting obligations.
