Reporting burden on vehicle loan holders
Businesses or other for-profit organizations that receive interest on specified passenger vehicle loans must file information returns to the IRS and furnish Form 1098-VLI to payers. The notice estimates 8,000,000 responses, about 15 minutes per response, totaling 2,000,000 annual burden hours and identifies this as a revision to an approved collection (OMB No. 1545-2334).
Vehicle loan interest statements for borrowers
If you paid interest on a vehicle loan, lenders will furnish you a Form 1098-VLI under IRC section 6050AA showing interest you paid during the calendar year. The form is meant to help you report or deduct the proper amount of vehicle loan interest when filing taxes.
