FATCA Reporting Software

Find quick and clear answers to the most common
questions about Novus Compliance

Who is required to file FATCA and CRS returns?

Generally, all Financial Institutions (FIs), including Banks, Mutual Funds, Insurance Companies, and Custodial Institutions, are required to file. Additionally, many Private Trusts and Exporters (Non-Financial Entities) with overseas accounts or controlling persons may also face reporting obligations.

What happens if I miss the reporting deadline?

Non-compliance is expensive. Failing to file correct FATCA returns can lead to a 30% withholding tax on your US-sourced payments. Additionally, local tax authorities (like the Indian Income Tax Department) may levy significant penalties for delayed or incorrect filings.

What is the difference between FATCA and CRS?

FATCA (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act) is a US Law requiring you to report US-owned accounts to the IRS. CRS (Common Reporting Standard) is a Global Standard (OECD) requiring you to report accounts held by residents of over 100 partner countries (UK, Singapore, Germany, etc.) to your local tax authority. Novus Compliance handles both.

Do I need to purchase a Digital Certificate to use your service?

No. This is a major benefit of using Novus Compliance. We act as your authorized Third-Party Transmitter. We sign and encrypt your data using our digital credentials, saving you the cost ($300–$500/year) and hassle of buying and maintaining your own certificate.

Do I need to convert my data into XML format myself?

No. You do not need to learn XML programming or schema validation. You simply download our Excel template, fill in the required details (Name, TIN, Balance), and upload it. Our system automatically handles the conversion to the complex IRS/OECD XML v2.0 standard.

My data is in a different currency. How do you handle that?

Our system is designed for multi-currency reporting. We accurately report account balances in their original currency and apply the correct conversion rules as per the specific jurisdiction guidelines.

Is my financial data safe with you?

Yes. We use Bank-Grade Security. Your data is encrypted at rest and in transit using AES-256-CBC encryption standards, which is the exact cryptographic standard required by the US IRS.

Do I need to convert my data into XML format myself?

No. You do not need to learn XML programming or schema validation. You simply download our Excel template, fill in the required details (Name, TIN, Balance), and upload it. Our system automatically handles the conversion to the complex IRS/OECD XML v2.0 standard.

Do you sell or share my data with anyone?

Absolutely not. Your data is processed strictly for filing purposes. It is transmitted directly from you to the tax authorities (IRS or local government). We never share, sell, or expose your data to third parties.

How do I know my return was actually filed?

Transparency is key. Once we transmit your data to the IDES Gateway (for FATCA) or the local portal (for CRS), we provide you with the official Transmission Receipt and a status report proving that your return was accepted.

What if my data has errors (e.g., invalid Tax ID)?

Our system performs Smart Data Validation before submission. We check for valid CRS status codes (e.g., CRS-101) and ensure Tax Residence codes are correct. If there is an issue, our system alerts you immediately so it can be fixed before the file is sent to the IRS, preventing rejection.

Can you handle bulk filings for multiple entities?

Yes. Our platform is built for Bulk Processing. We can efficiently process reports for thousands of account holders or multiple entities in a single, validated batch. This is ideal for Chartered Accountants and Tax Consultants managing multiple clients.

Do you support the latest XML Schema versions?

Yes. The IRS and OECD frequently update their reporting schemas (e.g., to FATCA XML v2.0). We ensure our software is always updated to the latest official schema to prevent technical rejections.

Do we need to register with foreign tax authorities (like HMRC UK or IRS USA) to file CRS reports?

No. For Indian Financial Institutions, all CRS and FATCA reports are filed centrally with the Indian Income Tax Department. You do not need to register with any foreign government. Once you upload your report to the Indian Insight Portal, the Government of India automatically exchanges the data with the respective countries.

Do I use my own ITDREIN or does Novus Compliance provide one?

You must use your own ITDREIN. The Income Tax Department requires the reporting entity (you) to be the registered filer. Novus Compliance is a software tool that generates the compliant XML report for you, but the legal filing must be done under your entity's specific ITDREIN and PAN.

Who is responsible for signing and uploading the file?

The file must be digitally signed (DSC) by your organization’s Designated Director or Principal Officer. While our support team can guide you through the upload process on the Insight Portal, the digital signature and final submission must be authorized by your official signatory.

We are a consultant filing for multiple clients. Can we use our single ITDREIN?

No. Each Financial Institution (Client) must have their own ITDREIN generated via their specific PAN login. If you manage compliance for multiple clients, you must log in to the portal using each client’s specific credentials to upload their respective files.
