REVISED Request for Taxpayer ID Number (Substitute W9)

<h1> W-9 Form Revised November 2013</h1> <p> <strong>The W9 form has been revised - please destroy any old copies you may have. </strong></p> <p> The University is required to have an IRS form W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification) or W-8BEN (international vendors/individuals) or an acceptable substitute form on file for each vendor receiving payments from the University. The data on the form contains the employer FEIN or, in the case of a sole proprietorship, the Social Security number of the vendor. This number is used as the vendor identification number in all University-related transactions. <strong>Please note that sole proprietors are assigned a UIN to conform to University policy.</strong></p> <p> <strong>The University uses the Substitute IRS Form W-9 or W-8BEN (international vendors/individuals) that must be on file prior to invoice receipt from a vendor.</strong></p> <p> <strong>This form must be on file with the Accounts Payable office before departments may order goods/services from a vendor.</strong></p> <p> <strong>Vendors must use the most recent version of the form dated November 2013 and </strong><strong>may submit the W-9 form electronically to <a href="mailto:w-9@odu.edu"><font color="#002b5f">w-9@odu.edu</font></a>.</strong></p> <p> <strong>The W9 form may be found on the Office of Finance web site under Vendor Forms or Faculty/Staff forms or on Procurement&nbsp;Services&#39; web site under Vendor Responsibilities.&nbsp; </strong></p> <p> <strong><a href="http://ww2.odu.edu/af/finance/facultystaff/disbursements_processing/accounts_payable/SubstituteW9.pdf">http://ww2.odu.edu/af/finance/facultystaff/disbursements_processing/accounts_payable/SubstituteW9.pdf</a></strong></p>
