W-8 and W-9 Compliance Management

Learn about withholding tax compliance, W-8 & W-9 forms, and best practices to avoid IRS penalties in this essential session.

Withholding tax compliance has become a focus of the IRS audits in recent years, especially for payments to foreign vendors. Organizations often have difficulty keeping up with the changes in this relatively niche area of tax, and this has led to significant penalties for non-compliance. Forms W-8 and W-9 are the foundation for withholding tax compliance as they will provide the information necessary to correctly withhold and report on applicable payments. This session will cover when you must collect the forms and the steps needed to review them for completeness and correctness to avoid any potential liability for failing to withhold and report. We will discuss the common pain points and provide practical advice on how to better improve your operational process, as well as the requirements to monitor for any change in circumstances.
