If you are involved in Advertising, MyLibsyn, a Smartphone App, or any other venture with Libsyn that allows you to monitize your show, Libsyn will require that you fill out a W-9 for tax purposes. We will explain what needs filled out for the W-9 below.
You can download the current W9 form from the IRS by clicking here.

Please legibly print your name as it appears on your income tax return.

Federal Tax Classification
Please check the box for the federal tax classification you or your business falls under. If you are unsure, please consult your accountant.
