Hello! Our company's finance team needs me to provide UpWork's W9 form before I can proceed paying any freelancers through UpWork. I wasn't able to find the completed W9 form anywhere. Can you please attach or provide UpWork's W9 form to me?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Dawn,
Please note that Upwork is an online marketplace where clients directly engage and pay freelancers to perform services. Clients do not pay the freelancer service fees to Upwork. Instead, Upwork's affiliate, Upwork Escrow Inc., acts as an escrow agent and passes funds from the client to the freelancer. In general, since the service fees are paid to your freelancer through the escrow service, we do not believe a W-9 is necessary.
If you have any further questions about your Upwork account, please contact our support team by:

In the Form W-9 page, there is a guide for you to complete the form. Also, there is a sentence that says: "The directions are the same as filling out the paper Form W-9 form from the IRS." If you need an IRS W-9 pdf document, you can find it over here.

Hi Dogan! Thanks for the prompt reply. I'm not a freelancer but a client/company who needs UpWork's W9 form so our finance team can proceed with payment requests to UpWork. Can you help me get the W9 form?

Hi,
Our accountant says we need a W-9 for Upwork. Can you please provide me a copy?
Thank you,

Well so why do you ask freelancers for W9? why are you not sharing the freelancer W9 with us after the work was done? wouldnt it make it easier for everyone ?
