Unlocking Accuracy and Efficiency with IRS TIN Matching API

The TIN Matching Program allows you to validate your payees' TINs (from W-9 Forms) against the IRS database, ensuring accurate 1099 returns.

Why TIN Matching is Essential for Your Tax Compliance:

  • Eliminate Rejections - Prevent 1099 rejections due to incorrect TINs, especially with the new Information Return Intake System (IRIS).
  • Avoid IRS Penalties - Minimize the risk of penalties for filing 1099s with incorrect TINs.
  • Bypass Backup Withholding - Avoid B-notices and the need for backup withholding by ensuring TIN accuracy through TIN Matching.
