Document Updates: Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding (Cx7938)

Jan 24, 2024

Topics: Document Updates

The “Certificate of Foreign Status” (our Cx7938) is used for foreign persons that have amounts that are subject to US tax withholding. Part I of the form is for the identification of the Beneficial Owner of the amounts.  Number 2 of Part I is a box for the “Country of citizenship”. We are updating this box to utilize the “Borrower [x] Country of Citizenship” field series (e.g. FI 149478) on a generic basis. Clients may need to test to ensure that the field mappings are working as intended.

These changes are available for testing on Stage and Stage 2 servers and will take effect on January 31, 2024. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Client Support at 1.800.497.3584.
