Features
Request electronic W-9s
Send an electronic W-9 request to anyone from any device at any time. Automatic reminders help to ensure a timely response.
An email with the company’s contact information will be sent to the vendor requesting that they complete an electronic W-9 form online. The vendor will then have the option to create an electronic W-9 or upload an existing scanned PDF W-9 form. The W9manager create process is a guided process with context-sensitive help that enables the user to create a more accurate and complete W-9. The requesting company will then receive an alert when the W-9 form has been completed.
Improve IRS 1099 compliance
Prepare for 1099 season now by ensuring you have a validated, complete W-9 for every vendor and know what payments are 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC reportable and why.
Our 1099-MISC/NEC reportability guide makes it easy to comply with complex IRS information reporting requirements. You select the type of payment being made and W9manager compares this to the tax classification reported on the W-9 form. With this information W9manager tells you if the payment will be 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC reportable, not reportable or unknown. If the payment is likely reported on another 1099 form, W9manager will notate that outcome.
Avoid sending paper 1099s
Avoid the time-consuming task of printing, stuffing and mailing 1099s. Vendors are given the option to opt in to receive 1099s electronically if they agree to the required IRS disclosure.
The IRS requires that paper 1099 forms are physically mailed out annually summarizing all reportable payments made to vendors. The IRS provides an option to opt in to receive 1099s electronically if the vendor agrees to the required IRS disclosure. Companies are also required to comply with certain notifications and provide opt-out options. W9manager handles all these tasks. When electronic delivery is authorized, paper 1099 forms no longer need to be mailed.
