After you finish filling out the simple W-9 file DO NOT SEND IT TO THE IRS!
No, you should give it to the payer.
That is the person who asked for it and is paying you for your services etc as you are a sole-proprietor etc.
Here are the instructions for the requester of the W9.
You will get a 1099 at the beginning of the next year for filing your taxes if you have gotten more than $600.00 from the company.
I have gotten one for $180.00 so one never knows for sure. |
