As part of the onboarding process in Atto Payroll, contractors are required to complete and sign a W-9 form. This IRS form is used to provide your Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and other identifying details for tax reporting purposes.
What’s Required
When completing the W-9 form, you’ll need to provide:
Legal Name
Business Name (if applicable)

This information is used by the company you’re contracting with to accurately report payments made to you. At the end of the year, this data is used to generate your 1099 form for tax filing.
