Form W-9 gives a requester your taxpayer name, federal tax classification and taxpayer identification number for information reporting. It is commonly collected before a business pays a vendor. The March 2024 revision is a revision date, not a separate annual income report. ## Records to gather - Taxpayer name associated with the TIN and any different business name - Federal tax classification and, when applicable, LLC classification - Current mailing address and the SSN, ITIN or EIN appropriate to line 1 - Applicable exemption information and certification/signature requirements ## Fields you will work through The guided editor groups the supported fields into practical steps. The available fields follow the chosen revision. Taxpayer detailsFull name or entity name · Business name (optional) · Federal tax classification Mailing addressStreet address · City · State Taxpayer identification numberIdentification type · Taxpayer identification number Exemptions (optional)Exempt payee code · FATCA exemption code Signature (optional)Typed signature (optional) · Signature date (optional) ## Check before using your PDF - Check that the name and TIN belong together; a correctly formatted number does not verify identity. - Review the disregarded-entity instructions before choosing the name or LLC classification. Leave inapplicable exemption codes blank. ## After you prepare the document Provide the reviewed W-9 to the person who requested it through a secure channel. The requester generally retains it for information reporting; creating a W-9 does not file a 1099. ## Common questions Do I send a W-9 to the IRS? Give the W-9 to its requester, not directly to the IRS. The requester uses the information when preparing applicable information returns. Read the certification and follow the requester’s signature requirements. Which W-9 revision does Formz support? The current catalog lists March 2024. Select an available year inside the editor where offered and compare that PDF with the reporting period you need. A supported historical revision is not a claim that it is suitable for a current-year obligation. Does downloading W-9 complete filing? No. Formz prepares the supported PDF from your supplied entries. You must review signatures, attachments, copy labels and the applicable delivery or filing method separately. It does not submit government forms or provide filing acceptance. ## Related forms and guides [Taxpayer identity, withholding and ID application forms](/categories/taxpayer-identity.md)[1099-NEC Form 1099-NEC reports nonemployee compensation when the payment and payer meet the selected year’s reporting rules.](/forms/1099-nec.md)[1099-MISC Form 1099-MISC reports specified payment categories such as rents, royalties and other miscellaneous payments.](/forms/1099-misc.md)[Form SS-4 Form SS-4 collects the information used to request an employer identification number.](/forms/ss4.md)[How to fill out Form W-9](/guides/how-to-fill-out-w9.md)[W-9 vs. 1099: who completes each and why](/guides/w9-vs-1099.md) ## Official sources Source links reviewed October 4, 2026.
