What is the W-9S form?

This form is used to determine a student's correct identification number. This could be a Social Security Number (SSN) or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). To provide accurate information on your 1098-T Florida State University requires your correct identification number. If you do not have one of the aforementioned identification numbers, do one of the following:

• To apply for an SSN, visit: http://www.ssa.gov/forms and follow the instructions on the Social Security Card application.
• To apply for an ITIN, visit: www.irs.gov and search for the W-7 form. Follow the instructions listed on the form.

Only complete and submit a W-9S form if you have been contacted by the University and were instructed to complete one.

• your name
• your taxpayer ID number
• your address
• your city, state, and zip code
