Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification

Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification, is an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) form that is used to provide taxpayer identification numbers (TIN) to the Accounts Payable department. For individuals, TIN is their Social Security number. For other unincorporated entities, such as sole proprietorships or partnerships, it is their employer identification number (EIN). The taxpayer identification number is required by Accounts Payable for the proper filing of information returns (1099) with the IRS to report income paid to any unincorporated entity. A copy of the form is available through Accounts Payable (X3-6475).

Requests for Payment to independent contractors cannot be processed unless Form W-9 is attached to the initial request. Refer to TJU University Policy #103.19 for more information.
