That is where W-9 collection still matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The IRS states that Form W-9 is used to provide a correct taxpayer identification number to a person required to file an information return with the IRS, including for income paid to the recipient.

(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/newsroom\/irs-issues-faqs-on-form-1099-k-threshold-under-the-one-big-beautiful-bill-dollar-limit-reverts-to-20000\">IRS<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, for certain 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC reporting, the IRS says that starting with payments made after December 31, 2025, the minimum reporting threshold increases from <em>$600 to $2,000<\/em>. The IRS also says this threshold can be adjusted for inflation beginning after 2026. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/newsroom\/one-big-beautiful-bill-business-tax-provisions-youtube-video-text-script\">IRS<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That matters. But it does not mean businesses can ignore W-9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_dangerous_mistake_%E2%80%9CThe_threshold_is_higher_so_we_can_collect_W-9s_later%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>The dangerous mistake: \u201cThe threshold is higher, so we can collect W-9s later\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is weak thinking, and it will create the same January mess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A higher threshold changes when a form may need to be filed. It does not solve the operational problem of missing vendor data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most businesses do not know in January which vendor will cross the reporting threshold by December. A freelancer who starts with one small project can become a recurring contractor. A legal vendor, consultant, healthcare provider, property owner, or service provider can cross the threshold quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the W-9 is missing after the vendor has already been paid, the business is now chasing tax information after the leverage is gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is the real problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the vendor wants to get paid, they respond faster. After payment, the request becomes easier to ignore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_W-9s_still_matter_after_OBBBA\"><\/span>Why W-9s still matter after OBBBA<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A W-9 is not just a form. It is the data source behind cleaner 1099 reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For vendor records, the key details usually include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Legal name<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Business name or DBA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Federal tax classification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Taxpayer Identification Number<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Address<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certification and signature<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>W-9 collection date<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>W-9 status<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Without this information, your team may still face missing vendor records, incorrect names, wrong TINs, duplicate vendors, and last-minute cleanup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The IRS instructions for 1099-NEC state that businesses generally file Form 1099-NEC for people paid at least $2,000 for services performed by someone who is not an employee. The instructions also note that a business must file Form 1099-NEC for any person from whom federal income tax was withheld under backup withholding rules, regardless of payment amount. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/instructions\/i1099mec\">IRS<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means the threshold is not the only thing that matters. Vendor classification, payment type, withholding status, and accurate tax details still matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1099-K_confusion_is_not_the_same_as_W-9_collection\"><\/span>1099-K confusion is not the same as W-9 collection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>OBBBA\u2019s 1099-K change will get attention because platforms like payment processors and marketplaces are involved. But 1099-K is not the same as a W-9 workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A 1099-K is typically connected to third-party payment networks. A W-9 is the information request businesses use to collect taxpayer details from U.S. vendors, contractors, and other payees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So the real question for businesses is not only, \u201cDid the 1099-K threshold change?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The better question is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Can we clearly see which vendors are missing W-9s before year-end?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the answer is no, the business still has a process problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_businesses_should_do_now\"><\/span>What businesses should do now<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The smart move is not to wait until January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use OBBBA as a reason to clean up vendor records before the year-end rush. A simple review should answer these questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do we have a completed W-9 for every active U.S. vendor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are vendor legal names and business names separated correctly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are TINs stored securely and matched to the correct vendor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can we see which vendors are missing W-9s?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can we track payment totals against reporting thresholds?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can AP, finance, or the controller access the right records without digging through email threads?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your answer is \u201cnot really,\u201d the threshold change is not your biggest issue. Your vendor data process is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_GetW9_fits\"><\/span>Where GetW9 fits<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>GetW9 is relevant because OBBBA makes reporting rules something businesses need to understand, but GetW9 helps with the operational side: collecting, tracking, and organizing W-9 records before 1099 season becomes a cleanup project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of managing W-9s through spreadsheets, inbox searches, and manual reminders, teams can use GetW9 to centralize the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That matters because the pain is not only filing the 1099. The pain is everything before filing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Missing forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Incomplete vendor details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unclear W-9 status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last-minute chasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sensitive tax documents sitting in email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No simple way to see what is ready and what is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OBBBA changed parts of the reporting conversation. It did not change the need for clean vendor data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bottom_line\"><\/span>Bottom line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>OBBBA may reduce reporting for some payments, especially where vendors stay below the updated thresholds. But businesses should not treat that as permission to delay W-9 collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The better approach is simple:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Collect W-9s early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Track vendor status clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep tax information organized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Review vendor records before year-end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is how teams avoid January fire drills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Better vendor data today.
