This form is required to load a vendor into the University's vendor database for payment (please use this form, not the IRS-issued W-9). If you have questions, contact Procurement Services at (302) 831-2161 or email procurement@udel.edu.
This form is considered substantially similar to IRS Form W-9 and must be used in lieu of the IRS form.
Per IRS regulations, the University is required to obtain this information for all persons and organizations receiving payment from us. Without this information, your payments may be subject to 28% backup withholding. You may also be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS under Section 6723. Federal law on backup withholding preempts any state or local law remedies, such as any right to a mechanic's lien. If you do not furnish a valid TIN, or if you are subject to backup withholding, the University is required to withhold 28% of its payment to you. Backup withholding is not a failure to pay you; it is an advance tax payment. Report all backup withholding as a credit for taxes paid on your federal income tax return.
This form is for vendors located in the United States. International vendors should contact Procurement Services.
