SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title:
Directed Withholding and Deposit Verification, and Application for Central Withholding Agreement Less than $10,000.
OMB Number:
1545-2102.
Form Number:
Form 13920 and 13930.
Abstract:
Central Withholding Agreement (CWA) is a tool that can help nonresident entertainers and athletes who plan to work in the United States and provides for withholdings at a graduated rate. Form 13930 will be used by an individual who wishes to have a Central Withholding Agreement (CWA). Starting October 1, 2018, NRAAEs must have U.S. gross income of at least $10,000 (including income estimated on the CWA application budget) before the NRAAE is eligible to apply for a withholding agreement using Form 13930. The Internal Revenue Service has temporarily waived the income requirement for which form to use when applying for a CWA. Form 13930-A is currently unavailable. While the waiver is in effect, individuals with income below $10,000 can apply for a CWA using Form 13930. Form 13920 is used by withholding agents to verify to IRS that required deposits were made and give the amount of such deposits.
