Note: The draft you are looking for begins on the next page.

Caution: DRAFT—NOT FOR FILING
This is an early release draft of an IRS tax form, instructions, or publication,
which the IRS is providing for your information. Do not file draft forms and do
not rely on draft forms, instructions, and publications for filing. We do not
release draft forms until we believe we have incorporated all changes (except
when explicitly stated on this coversheet). However, unexpected issues
occasionally arise, or legislation is passed—in this case, we will post a new draft
of the form to alert users that changes were made to the previously posted draft.
Thus, there are never any changes to the last posted draft of a form and the
final revision of the form. Forms and instructions generally are subject to OMB
approval before they can be officially released, so we post only drafts of them
until they are approved. Drafts of instructions and publications usually have
some changes before their final release.
Early release drafts are at IRS.gov/DraftForms and remain there after the
final release is posted at IRS.gov/LatestForms. All information about all forms,
instructions, and pubs is at IRS.gov/Forms.
Almost every form and publication has a page on IRS.gov with a friendly
shortcut. For example, the Form 1040 page is at IRS.gov/Form1040; the Pub.
501 page is at IRS.gov/Pub501; the Form W-4 page is at IRS.gov/W4; and the
Schedule A (Form 1040/SR) page is at IRS.gov/ScheduleA. If typing in a link
above instead of clicking on it, be sure to type the link into the address bar of
your browser, not a Search box.
If you wish, you can submit comments to the IRS about draft or final forms,
instructions, or publications at IRS.gov/FormsComments. We cannot respond to
all comments due to the high volume we receive and may not be able to
consider many suggestions until the subsequent revision of the product.
If you have comments on reducing paperwork and respondent (filer) burden,
with respect to draft or final forms, please respond to the relevant information
collection through the Federal Register process; for more info, click here.

Instructions for the Person Subject to
Withholding Under Section 1446(f)(4)
Generally, if you are the transferee of a partnership interest from
a foreign person and failed to withhold the entire amount
required under section 1446(f)(1) or failed to certify to the
partnership the extent to which you satisfied your withholding
obligation, your partnership will withhold on a distribution to you
under section 1446(f)(4) and Regulations section 1.1446(f)-3 and
issue you a Form 8288-C.

You may use the Form 8288-C as evidence of the amount of
your section 1446(f)(1) liability that you satisfied. If the amount
the partnership withholds under section 1446(f)(4) exceeds your
section 1446(f)(1) liability, you may be able to claim a refund by
attaching Form(s) 8288-C to Form 8288.
Do not use Form 8288-C to claim a credit against your
income tax liability or attach it to your income tax return.
See the Instructions for Form 8288, Pub. 515, and Pub. 519
for more information.

Instructions for the Partnership Withholding
Under Section 1446(f)(4)
If a foreign person transferred an interest in your partnership
and the transferee failed to withhold the entire amount required
under section 1446(f)(1) or failed to certify to the partnership the
extent to which it satisfied its withholding obligation, the
partnership must withhold on each distribution to the transferee
under section 1446(f)(4) and Regulations section 1.1446(f)-3 and
issue to the transferee a Form 8288-C.
For each distribution, you must prepare a separate Form
8288-C for each transfer subject to withholding under section
1446(f)(4) and Regulations section 1.1446(f)-3. Attach Copy A to
Form 8288. Provide Copy B to the partner (transferee) subject to
withholding. Retain Copy C for your records.
U.S. taxpayer identification number (TIN). A U.S. taxpayer
identification number (TIN) is a(n) social security number (SSN),

identification number (ITIN). For more information, see the
Instructions for Form 8288.

Address. When providing a foreign address on Form 8288-C,
enter the number and street, city or town, state or province,
country, and ZIP or foreign postal code. Don’t abbreviate the

the postal code in the address.

transferred to the transferee whose name appears on this form.
Box 2. Enter the amount realized by the foreign person who
transferred its interest in the partnership to the transferee.

transferee that is subject to withholding.
Box 5. Enter the total amount of the distribution to the transferee.
