Title

Instructions
Purpose of form. Use this form to transmit paper Forms 1042-S,
Foreign Person’s U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholding, to the
Internal Revenue Service. Use a separate Form 1042-T to transmit
each type of Form 1042-S (see the instructions for line 1a).
Electronic filing requirement. If you file 250 or more Forms 1042S, you are required to submit them electronically. If you submit less
than 250 Forms 1042-S, you are encouraged to file them
electronically. If you are a financial institution you are required to
submit Form 1042-S electronically irrespective of the number of
Forms 1042-S you submit. If you submit Forms 1042-S
electronically, do not use Form 1042-T. See the instructions for
Form 1042 for the definition of financial institution.
Filing Forms 1042 and 1042-S. Use of this form to transmit paper
Forms 1042-S does not affect your obligation to file Form 1042,
Annual Withholding Tax Return for U.S. Source Income of Foreign
Persons.
If you have not yet filed a Form 1042 for 2015, you may send in
more than one Form 1042-T to submit paper Forms 1042-S prior to
filing your Form 1042. You may submit amended Forms 1042-S
even though changes reflect differences in gross income and tax
withheld information of Forms 1042-S previously submitted with a
Form 1042-T.
If you have already filed a Form 1042 for 2015 and an attached
Form 1042-S caused the gross income or tax withheld information
previously reported on line 62c or 63e of your Form 1042 to change,
you must file an amended Form 1042.
Where and when to file. File Form 1042-T (and Copy A of the
paper Forms 1042-S being transmitted) with the Ogden Service
Center; P.O. Box 409101; Ogden, UT 84409; by March 15, 2016.
