D. Privacy Act Notice — Section 6109 requires most recipients of dividend, interest or other payments to give taxpayer identification numbers to payors who must report the payments to the IRS. The IRS uses the numbers for identification purposes.

Payors must be given the numbers whether or not payees are required to file tax returns. Payors must generally withhold, at a maximum rate of 31%, a portion of taxable interest, dividend and certain other payments to a payee who does not furnish a taxpayer identification number. Certain penalties may also apply.

E. Penalties —

(1) Penalty for Failure to Furnish Taxpayer Identification Number. If you fail to furnish your taxpayer identification number to a payor, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect.

(2) Civil Penalty for False Information with Respect to Withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis which results in no imposition of backup withholding, you are subject to a penalty of $500.

(3) Criminal Penalty for Falsifying Information. Falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.
