Question: My social security number (SSN) or employer identification number (EIN) are listed incorrectly on my 1099. What do I do?

1099's are prepared automatically using the information you provided when you joined or last updated your information. If your 1099 contains incorrect SSN or EIN data you will need to have a corrected 1099 issued. Please complete this form to initiate the process: https://form.jotform.com/232073631332042

Question: Do I have to submit my W9 through your partner? 

Yes. It is not feasible for the brokerage to maintain multiple methods of obtaining, tracking, and transmitting W9 information. We have chosen our IRS-approved vendor partner due to their strong security capabilities, and their ability to provide you with fast & easy access to your tax documents at any time. 

Question: Where can I see how much commission I earned last year? 

If eligible, your 1099 form will include the total commission paid to you for that year. It is ultimately up to the independent contractor to track income and expenses for tax purposes. To request a spreadsheet with your commission earnings you must complete the following form: https://form.jotform.com/230475311980050

Question: What if I don't submit my W9? 

Agents may not receive commission payments until a completed W9 is submitted through our partner. Failure to provide an accurate W9 through our partner may result in the IRS requiring the brokerage to withhold 20% of your commissions until an accurate W9 is provided. Notices from the IRS will be sent to you prior to the start of the 20% withholdings. 

Question: What if I already submitted my W9 through another method?

We will not accept any W9 that is not submitted through our selected partner. If you previously submitted a W9 through an alternate method please be advised that your 1099 will be sent via USPS to the last available mailing address we have on file for you.
