SSN - EIN - PTIN - ITIN - NO TIN - W-9 - W-8 - What does it all mean? Obtaining the correct taxpayer identification number and determining which certification to use for each account you open can sometimes make your head spin. In this two hour Webinar, you will learn the difference between government-issued taxpayer identification numbers including who applies for which TIN and how they are issued. We will also discuss how to certify these TINs based on the accountholder's resident status in the US.

The following questions will be addressed:

  • What responsibility do we have to determine whether the accountholder is a resident or nonresident alien?
  • Do we have to have a TIN on an interest-bearing account for all accountholders?
  • What's the difference between a TIN and an EIN?
  • How long does a W-8BEN stay certified?
  • What documents do we need to change a maiden name on an account to a married name?
  • How do we title a sole proprietorship account using an EIN vs. a SSN?

Who Should Attend?

All customer contact personnel, supervisors and officers whose responsibilities include opening or managing the new account area. Excellent for supervisors or officers who have authority to "waive" documentation requirements. Internal Auditors and Compliance Officers will find the information beneficial as well.
