Information from the IRS regarding W-9 forms: irs.gov/instructions/iw9/ar02.html And info from About. Com: Form W-9 is the IRS form used by a company to request your taxpayer identification number.

Most often, Form W-9 is sent to independent contractors, consultants, and other self-employed workers. Filling out a W-9 is pretty straightforward. Just provide your name and Social Security Number, or the name and Employer Identification Number of your business.By submitting a W-9, you are certifying that the tax id number you are providing is correct and accurate and that you are not subject to backup withholding.

You can obtain a blank Form W-9 (PDF) to give to independent contractors you hire or to type and print out if you need to give one to your employer.
