Businesses are so confused by the new laws that just about everyone is being asked for a W9.. I know with my business you won’t get paid if we don’t have a W9 on file. No exceptions.
The stupid American sheeple decided there would be few or no checks on Fedzilla last November.
One possible loophole: corporate credit cards and contractors which accept them. We aren't required to get W-9 information for this type of payment.
I can't prove it but I suspect the banksters had this provision written into law so they could skim just a little piece of every business transaction.
