The TCJA also added IRC section 6050X, requiring the official of any government or entity described in IRC section 162(f)(5) to file an information return with respect to certain fines, penalties, and other amounts paid. Treasury Decision (TD) 9946 contains final regulations providing guidance on IRC sections 162(f) and 6050X. Treasury Regulations section 1.6050X–1 provides guidance on the information reporting requirements of IRC section 6050X and names Form 1098–F as the return to report the information. Form 1098–F is used to report the amounts paid as required by IRC section 6050X to the IRS and provide a statement to the payer.
