• Provide your current IRS form W-9.

  • Enter in the year the W-9 was signed and click "Choose files" to upload your W-9 document. 
    
    
    
  • Click "Save". Once saved, the system will start scanning your W-9 to help automatically find company information that can be populated into your qualification.
    
    
    
    When the file is scanned, you will get a successful message or a failure.
    
    If successful, the system will check against the data in the fields below and suggest updated data from the W-9 if there's a difference and if not, it will just populate the fields. You can always overwrite the suggested data from the W-9 scan.
    
    The fields that will populate from the W-9 include: 
    
  • Company Tax Name
  • Doing Business As
  • Tax Type

  • Tax ID 
     

    

    
    
    Note: If the scan processes the file but finds no valid data, you will see a message stating that the scan was successful but no valid W-9 data was found.
