With the other required prerequisites for a paid campaign, you must fill out an IRS form. The IRS form you fill out depends on your residing location.
Note: Please fill out one of the listed IRS forms. After completing the form, upload the file to your account with the brand/agency – not the IRS.
W-9 Form
The W-9 IRS form is for creators residing in the United States. With this form, your partnering brand/agency will receive your Tax Identification Number – or TIN – for payment.
