A recipient needs to submit Form W-9 to provide the correct TIN and certification to the payer. And the payer will use this information to file the 1099 form.
 
A business owner/payer can request W-9 through TaxBandits using the following instructions.

• Create or Sign up with TaxBandits.
• Click on Start New Form and select Form W-9. 
• Enter the name and email address of the recipients one by one. 
• Click on the Send W-9 Request. 
• W-9 requests will be sent to the recipients through email.

Payers can use the information provided in the W-9s to file 1099 for their recipient at the year-end through TaxBandits.
