See Form 3491, Consumer Cooperative Exemption Application, for information about how to apply for this exemption.

Truncating recipient's TIN on payee statements. Pursuant to Regulations section 301.6109-4, all filers of this form may truncate a payee’s TIN (social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN)) on payee statements. Truncation is not allowed on any documents the filer files with the IRS. A filer’s TIN may not be truncated on any form. See part J in the current General Instructions for Certain Information Returns. 2nd TIN Not. You may enter an “X” in this box if you were notified by the IRS twice within 3 calendar years that the payee provided an incorrect TIN. If you mark this box, the IRS will not send you any further notices about this account. However, if you received both IRS notices in the same year, or if you received them in different years but they both related to information returns filed for the same year, do not check the box at this time. For purposes of the two-notices-in-3-years rule, you are considered to have received one notice and you are not required to send a second “B” notice to the taxpayer on receipt of the second notice. See part N in the current General Instructions for Certain Information Returns for more information. For information on the TIN Matching System offered by the IRS, see Items You Should Note in the current General Instructions for Certain Information Returns.
