Obtaining a Number

If you don't have a taxpayer identification number or you do not know your number, obtain Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Number Card (for resident individuals), Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number (for businesses and all other entities), or Form W-7 for International Taxpayer Identification Number (for alien individuals required to file U.S. tax returns), at the local office of the Social Security Administration or the Internal Revenue Service and apply for a number.

To complete Substitute Form W-9 if you do not have a taxpayer identification number, write "Applied For" in the space for the taxpayer identification number in Part I, sign and date the Form, and give it to the requester. Generally, you will then have 60 days to obtain a taxpayer identification number and furnish it to the requester. If the requester does not receive your taxpayer identification number within 60 days, backup withholding, if applicable, will begin and will continue until you furnish your taxpayer identification number to the requester.

Privacy Act Notices — Section 6109 requires most recipients of dividends, interest, or other payments to give taxpayer identification numbers to

the Payer who must report the payments to the IRS. The IRS uses the numbers for identification purposes and to help verify the accuracy of your tax return. The Payer must be given the numbers whether or not recipients are required to file tax returns. The Payer must generally withhold tax at the applicable withholding rate (which is currently 28%) taxable interest, dividends, and certain other payments to a payee who does not furnish a taxpayer identification number to the Payer. Certain penalties may also apply.

Penalties

(1): Penalty for Failure to Furnish Taxpayer Identification Number — If you fail to furnish your taxpayer identification number to the Payer, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.
(2): Civil Penalty for False Statements With Respect to Withholding — If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis which results in a decrease in the amount of backup withholding, you are subject to a penalty of $500.
(3): Criminal Penalty for Falsifying Information — If you falsify certifications or affirmations, you are subject to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.
