Overview
We are required by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and State Franchise Tax Board to have certain information on file for every company selling products or providing services to the City of San Carlos. This information is used for 1099 reporting purposes.
A new vendor will need to complete the Vendor Information Questionnaire and return it to the Finance Department. A delay in providing the requested information may cause a delay in payment of your bill.
If we do not receive this information within 10 working days or if we are advised by the IRS and/or State that the data is incorrect, we are required to retain a "Backup Withholding" of 31% for the IRS and 7% for the State on all payments to your firm.
Vendor Information Questionnaire
For your convenience, we have provided a copy of the Vendor Information Questionnaire in Adobe Acrobat format as part of our Forms on the Web program. Simply click on the links below, save both pages of the application to your computer's hard disk, print and complete the form and return or fax it back it to Finance Department for review and processing.
An application form is also available upon request from the Finance Department in City Hall or by calling (650) 802-4215 if you prefer to obtain the form in that fashion.
