Form 4669: Statement of Payments Received

Form 4669, Statement of Payments Received, supports a payor's request for relief from paying withholding tax that it did not withhold. The instructions say a payor who fails to withhold the required tax from a payee may be entitled to relief under sections 3402(d), 3102(f)(3), 1463 or Regulations section 1.1474-4, if the payor can show that the payee reported the payments and paid the corresponding tax. Form 4669 is used by a payor to show that it is entitled to such relief.

Two parties fill it out. The payor completes Part 1 with the payee, the calendar year and the payment amounts. The payee completes Part 2 to show where the payments were reported and signs Part 3. The payee returns the signed form to the payor, and the payor sends the Forms 4669 for each tax year to the IRS with Form 4670.
