The new sign-in process will add Identify Assurance Level 1 (1AL1) security for the FATCA Registration System. Later this month, the IRS will no longer support the use of the existing FATCA account sign-in authentication methods to access the FATCA Registration System. The FATCA Registration System provides more secure sign-in options with Login.gov and ID.me, the IRS's credential service providers. To access the FATCA Registration System, users will be required to sign in or register with Login.gov or ID.me. New users of Login.gov and/or ID.me will be required to create a Login.gov or ID.me account to access the FATCA Registration System. Existing users of either Login.gov and/or ID.me can simply sign in to the FATCA Registration System without creating a new account if the email matches that of the Responsible Officer or Point of Contact on the FATCA registration. The account creation process will include verifying an email address, creating a password, and setting up multi-factor authentication to secure their FATCA account. Login.gov and ID.me will provide several ways in which an applicant can obtain a multi-factor authentication code, including obtaining a code by receiving a phone call, text message or authentication application. Users will then consent for Login.gov or ID.me to share their email address with the IRS before accessing the FATCA Registration System. The IRS will update FATCA Registration System users when the new sign-in requirements will be implemented. Users should begin to review and update their Responsible Officer and Point of Contact information to ensure all FATCA account information is current and applicable prior to the system changes. Users should continue to register and sign-in to the FATCA Registration System using the current authentication methods.   Back to top Thank you for subscribing to FATCA News & Information, an IRS e-mail service.
