Reminders for TY 2023 Form 1042 and 1042-S Filing Season

In preparation for the upcoming TY 2023 filing season, the IRS is sharing some reminders to consider when preparing and filing Form 1042 and 1042-S.

ELECTRONIC FILING (E-FILING)
Form 1042 is now available for electronic filing. Form 1042 electronic filing is required for TY 2023 for a withholding agent that is a financial institution, a partnership with more than 100 partners, and for withholding agents that are filing 10 or more information returns for the calendar year. For general information about electronic filing, see Publication 4163, Modernized e-file (MeF) Information for Authorized IRS e-file Providers for Business Returns and the instructions to Form 1042.

In addition, the e-filing requirements for Form 1042-S have changed for TY 2023, lowering the 250 return e-file threshold to 10 (calculated by aggregating all information returns). For additional information refer to E-file information returns for e-filing options. See also Publication 1187 and Filing Information Returns Electronically (FIRE).

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Section 1446(f) withholding: Make note of withholding and reporting requirements for the transfer of a publicly traded partnership interest under section 1446(f) that are in effect for TY 2023. See instructions to Form 1042 and 1042-S.
