Hello,

I’m trying to re-submit my expiring Tax information but I’m having some difficulty, particularly with this part of the W-8BEN-E form:

From what I read on the instructions on the IRS website, if there’s no applicable LOB article I should enter Other -> N/A but the form doesn’t allow me to do that.

Sorry for the missing images, added them now. Please see the main topic message again. Yes, I did check that article out but it seems I can’t submit this form without selecting one of the limitation on benefits, however I checked and the Romania treaty has no LOB article. According to IRS, when that’s the case we should type “Other -> N/A” but as you can see from the screenshot the form doesn’t allow me to do that.

The IRS instructions says select “other” or enter N/A if there is no LOB article. Try to leave the list box “blank” or look if Envato has implemented a N/A entry in the list.
