SIFMA has asked for exclusions from the FATCA reporting requirements for non-U.S. collective investment vehicles, non-U.S. pension funds, existing securitization vehicles, and current reporting entities that already file Forms 1099 or Schedules K-1 with the IRS. SIFMA requested further definition or clarification of terms such as “withholdable payment”, “passthru payments”, and “gross proceeds”.
