IRS Form W-9
All NEHT members are required to submit an IRS W-9 form upon registration. This is a one-time requirement. All prize purse winnings will be reported as 1099 income to the IRS.
Why is this required?
Under IRS regulations, tournament prize winnings are considered taxable income. NEHT is required to report prize payments to the IRS and issue a 1099-MISC form for winnings. Completing a W-9 allows us to accurately report your information. This form is collected once and kept on file for the duration of your membership.
