TIN Verification and B Notices: How to Avoid Costly Mistakes and Penalties
To improve accuracy, IRS introduced an e-Services system that helps ensure the names and Tax Identification Numbers (TINs) that payees provide to companies match IRS records.
When used properly, this system can reduce your risk of receiving warning letters (CP2100 Notices and B Notices) and penalty notices (972CGs) from IRS.
But if it’s not used correctly, you're at a higher risk of making expensive mistakes. A/P departments that have dealt with the headaches of TIN violations and B Notices know this all too well.
