W8Ben Assistance

Postby Tax Flop » Tue Jan 29, 2013 2:54 pm

Hello,

I am part of an international Club, with members across the world, including in America.

I have been advised that, due to us holding a US stock, we are required to complete a W8Ben or W8IMY, but I am unsure whch "type of beneficial owner" we fall into. Are we a partnership, an international organization, or a Complex Trust???

Please help...

Many thanks!

What is the purpose/structure/constitution/domicile of the "club"?
With a pinch of salt take what I say, but don't exceed your RDA

Have you asked your bank how they propose to classify the entity under FATCA?
