To all web hosting resellers from the USA!
We have already made everything necessary to facilitate your work on filling the W-9 form according to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Service. This is a mandatory procedure, without which we would not be able to send your commissions. Now you can submit your W-9 form directly from the Reseller Control Panel.
When entering their personal accounts, each US web hosting reseller will notice that at the bottom left corner in 'Reseller Details' a new link - 'Submit W9 Form', was added. When you open the link, you will have the opportunity to enter and send your personal or corporate data directly.
We have also added links that will lead you to specific information regarding the conditions and requirements for filling of the W-9 form. You will learn, for example, whether you should use Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), Social Security Number (SSN) or Employer Identification Number (EIN) and how to get it if you do not have one already.
Until now, the submission of the W-9 form was made by fax or by mail. There were other circumstances complicating the procedure such as downloading the file with the W-9 form from the IRS site (www.irs.gov). Our communication with the accounting company Avalon Accounting was also harder. We had to keep contact through faxes and wait for confirmations. As a result from this, the processing of your data was slowed down, for which we ask you to excuse us.
Now the accounting company will receive the W-9 form directly from you, which will be confirmed immediately after you press the 'submit' button. Avalon Accounting will send your 1099 files by January 31 next year.
We hope that through this considerably simplified method of action we will save you time and unnecessary efforts.
