Gathering W-9s from your 1099 contractors throughout the year can involve countless email and text reminders to each individual contractor. The more contractors you hire, the more paperwork on your plate.
We’ve made it even easier for you: Now, you can request missing W-9s from all contractors at once in just a few simple clicks. Filter by W-9 missing or W-9 requested, select the checkbox of who you want to contact, and send W-9 requests.
Found will contact the selected contractors via SMS or email, spending on their preferred method. Don't worry: We won’t send reminders to contractors who have received a reminder in the last 24 hours. Once they’ve input their W-9, you’ll see a green W-9 complete box in your contractor management center.
Tip: To make tax time even easier, you can even require a contractor’s W-9 before they can accept payment.
Contractor services are often overlooked as a tax-deductible business expense, and proper tracking doesn’t just help with tax compliance; their fees can likely be deducted as a business expense, reducing your taxable income.
Gone are the piles of paperwork—everything’s all in one (digital) place. As an added bonus, all of this is done through our secure online platform so you don’t have to worry about jeopardizing your contractor’s sensitive information.
