W-9 Form Instructions
The IRS Tax Form W-9 is used to request the TIN (Taxpayer Identification Number) of a U.S. Person (including resident alien). The Companies often ask their partners/affiliates or anyone who receives income from them in the form of commissions etc to fill up the W-9 form.
Please note that for Individuals, TIN is generally a Social Security Number. You may develop and use their own Form W-9 if its content is substantially similar to the official IRS W-9 form. Typically companies offers a electronic version of the W-9 form and ask the information to be submitted in a online W-9 form.
In summary, Use Form W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification) only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident alien), to provide your correct TIN to the person requesting it (the requester) and, when applicable, to:
- Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued),
- Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or
- Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners’ share of effectively connected income.
