Request

Use this endpoint to send TIN Matching requests to TaxBandits. You can send multiple TINMatching requests in a single submission.

How does this work?

  1. Like any other TaxBandits API Endpoint, the first step is to call the Auth method to get the access token. This access token must be supplied in the request header as the ‘Bearer‘ token.

Refer to the OAuth 2.0 Authentication for more information on JWT authentication and how to integrate with the subsequent requests.

  1. The second step is to call the TINMatchingRecipients/Request API endpoint with the following values:

    • Access Token in the header as Bearer Token (Generated using TaxBandits OAuth authentication API).

    • Business Details (BusinessId or TIN. Optional value to save the TIN requested recipients to a particular Business).
      Refer to the Business endpoint to learn more about creating a Business in TaxBandits and retrieving the Business Id. In TaxBandits, you can uniquely identify a business using either its TIN or the TBS generated Business Id. You can also define a ‘Default Business’ in the TaxBandits Application and skip sending the Business Identifier along with the request.

    • Recipient Details as an array (Recipient Name, TINType and TIN).

  2. TaxBandits will send the TIN Matching requests to the IRS and get the statuses. Later, the client will be notified via Webhook. The Webhook payload will have the TIN Matching data such as the Name, TIN,TINType and Status of TIN Matching.

Refer to the TIN Matching webhook to learn more about webhook set up and sample payload.
