- Your FATCA Registration Must Always be Updated with the Current Name and Email Address of Your Responsible Officer and Point of Contact
1. Your FATCA Registration Must Always be Updated with the Current Name and Email Address of Your Responsible Officer and Point of Contact
Your FATCA registration must always be updated with the current name and email address of your responsible officer and point of contact(s) as soon as there is a change.
When you complete a FATCA registration, you are asked to include the name and contact information of (1) a Responsible Officer (“RO”) and (2) a Point of Contact (“POC”). Specifically, among other information, you must provide their mailing and email addresses as well as their telephone numbers.
The RO and POC information provides the IRS with the name and contact information of persons with whom they will communicate for reasons including but not limited to certifications, general inquiries and other FATCA compliance purposes. You are responsible for ensuring that you can receive email and message notifications from the IRS.
The IRS will send notices to your registration system message board for the reasons noted above and to give you a notification of potential actions to be taken on your account. Your RO will also receive an email notification when the IRS has sent a notice to your message board. It is your responsibility to make sure that you receive and review any messages sent to your message board and to ensure that your RO’s email address is accurate.
