Income Reallocation Service for REITS and RICs

Using transaction histories that you provide, WSC computes the appropriate income for each tax lot.  Data files are returned so that you can produce Forms 1099-OID for the beneficial owners. As part of this process, WSC collects foreign tax withholding factors, alternative minimum tax factors and the allocations percentage, by state, of tax-exempt income. WSC also screens equity securities to identify situations where dividend payments are likely to be characterized as a return of capital and contacts the company for a determination of the tax character of the distribution. The information collected is tested and standardized so that it may be utilized for transaction processing and viewed on the WSC Web site, where links are maintained to the original documentation for audit purposes.
