If you have paid contractors this year, October is a much friendlier time to make sure you have their information than January. 📂
Check your records and see what is missing.
1. A completed W-9 on file.
2. Their legal name and tax ID number.
3. A current mailing address.
1099s are due January 31, and you'll need all three to file them.
One email today is easier than chasing someone after the holidays while you are trying to close the year.
Do the quick check now and cross it off the list. Your January self will thank you.
