W-8 and W-9 Tax Form - Is this really required??
So I am planning a big ticket launch on november 11th and I have about 160 affiliates on board for this so far...
I have seen a couple emails from affiliate managers (1 from the old social media money system and another from CPA Tsunami) that are stating that it is required to fill out a W-9 form in order to pay affiliates....
For example...their email reads this:
According to our records, we do not have a current IRS form W9 on file for you. In order for you to receive your commission payments, you must fill out & submit the form below:
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw9.pdf
You can submit this form by emailing it to Affiliates@CPATsunami.com or by faxing to 530-884-3983.
Thank you!

Do I really have to have all of my 160 affiliates fill out this crap??? lol...if so, I am gonna lose about 80% of my affiliates because they wont want to take the time to fill that crap out...
I want to comply with ole Uncle Sam but at the same time I don't want to lose all my affiliates for this launch...please let me know what I can do here.
Thanks,
Todd
P.S. I suck when it comes to all this tax and law crap...so please respond as if you were talking to a 5 year old about this stuff, lol.
