Procedures for utilizing the tax identification number
- Also called
- Employer I.D. Number
- Federal I.D. Number
- T.I.N.
- Tax-exempt number
- W-9 number
- When request is made for W-9:
- Print and fax or e-mail the W-9 for The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco.
- Contact Jeff Yepsen if you have any question in regard to the issuance of a W-9
EXAMPLES:
A doctor teaches a seminar and payment is being made to UCSF. The company paying UCSF will request a W-9 so Federal and State Income taxes do not have to be withheld from the payment. A request to the Controller’s Office for a W-9 would be appropriate.
A department purchases supplies/services from a company. The company requests a tax exemption number in order to avoid charging taxes on the invoice. This would NOT be an appropriate request for W-9.
- Departments and/or employees of UCSF should never establish and/or change a tax identification number. The authority to establish and/or change the tax identification number rests with the University of California, Office of the President.
Please contact Jeffrey Yepsen to discuss the particular situation in your department if you believe your department may need to establish a separate tax identification number.
Please note the tax identification number is NOT a sales and use tax exemption. If you are making a purchase and have a question on sales and use tax please contact Lihua Gu.
