The VA Form 10091 is essential for vendors (commercial, individual, veteran) to establish or update payment records for electronic payments in compliance with 31 CFR Part 208. The form requires completion by an "Authorized Representative" and is used by VA facilities to collect payee information, including SAM.gov registration details (UEI, EFT Indicator), tax identification (SSN/TIN), and banking information (EFT/ACH). New vendors registered in SAM must complete specific sections, while those not registered have different requirements. Existing vendors with banking changes must update SAM, though other changes still require the form. The document outlines detailed instructions for each section, emphasizing accuracy and the legal implications of providing false information. The purpose of the form is to ensure timely and accurate electronic payments to vendors while adhering to federal regulations.
Form W-9 (Rev. March 2024) is a critical IRS document used by U.S. persons to provide their correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) to entities (requesters) obligated to file information returns with the IRS. These returns report various income types, such as interest, dividends, and nonemployee compensation. The form outlines federal tax classifications, including individual/sole proprietor, C corporation, S corporation, partnership, trust/estate, and LLC, along with specific instructions for each. Key updates in the March 2024 revision clarify how disregarded entities complete Line 3a and introduce Line 3b for flow-through entities with foreign partners, owners, or beneficiaries. The form details exemptions from backup withholding and FATCA reporting, specifies penalties for non-compliance, and provides guidance on how to obtain a TIN. It also includes certification requirements, definitions of a U.S. person, and crucial information on protecting against identity theft.
