The City of Gahanna is required by federal law to have on file a Form W-9 with the Taxpayer Identification

Part II Certification
Under penalties of perjury, I certify that:
1. The number shown on this form is my correct taxpayer identification number (or I am waiting for a number to be issued to me), and
2. I am not subject to backup withholding because: (a) I am exempt from backup withholding, or (b) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue

interest paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, contributions to an individual retirement arrangement (IRA), and
generally, payments other than interest and dividends, you are not required to sign the certification, but you must provide your correct TIN. See the

Purpose of Form
A person who is required to file an information return with the IRS must
obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) to report, for
example, income paid to you, real estate transactions, mortgage interest
you paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation
of debt, or contributions you made to an IRA.
Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident
alien), to provide your correct TIN to the person requesting it (the
requester) and, when applicable, to:
1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a
number to be issued),
2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or
3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt
payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your
allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business
is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners’ share of
effectively connected income.
Note. If a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request
your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar
to this Form W-9.
Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are
considered a U.S. person if you are:
• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien,
• A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or
organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States,
• An estate (other than a foreign estate), or
• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).
Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or
business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding
tax on any foreign partners’ share of income from such business.
Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, a
partnership is required to presume that a partner is a foreign person,
and pay the withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a
partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United
States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S.
status and avoid withholding on your share of partnership income.
Cat. No. 10231X
Form W-9 (Rev. 12-2011)
Form W-9 (Rev. 12-2011)
Page 2
The person who gives Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of
establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable
share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business
in the United States is in the following cases:
• The U.S. owner of a disregarded entity and not the entity,
• The U.S. grantor or other owner of a grantor trust and not the trust,
and
• The U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of
the trust.
Foreign person. If you are a foreign person, do not use Form W-9.
Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 (see Publication 515,
Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities).
Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a
nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce
or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax
treaties contain a provision known as a “saving clause.” Exceptions
specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to
continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise
become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.
If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception
contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption
from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement
to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items:
1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under
which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.
2. The treaty article addressing the income.
3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the
saving clause and its exceptions.
4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption
from tax.
5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of
the treaty article.
Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an
exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese
student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this
student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in
the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of
the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows
the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese
student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese
student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first
protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax
on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form
W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to
support that exemption.
If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity not subject to backup
withholding, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8.
What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you
must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS a percentage
of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that
may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt
interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents,
royalties, nonemployee pay, and certain payments from fishing boat
operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup
withholding.
You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you
receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper
certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your
tax return.
Payments you receive will be subject to backup
withholding if:
1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,
2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the Part II
instructions on page 3 for details),
3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN,
4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding
because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax
return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or
5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to
backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend
accounts opened after 1983 only).
Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding.
See the instructions below and the separate Instructions for the
Requester of Form W-9.
Also see Special rules for partnerships on page 1.
Updating Your Information
You must provide updated information to any person to whom you
claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee
and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this
person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if
you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you no
longer are tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if
the name or TIN changes for the account, for example, if the grantor of a
grantor trust dies.
Penalties
Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a
requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure
unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.
Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you
make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no
backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.
Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying
certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties
including fines and/or imprisonment.
Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of
federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.
Specific Instructions
Name
If you are an individual, you must generally enter the name shown on
your income tax return. However, if you have changed your last name,
for instance, due to marriage without informing the Social Security
Administration of the name change, enter your first name, the last name
shown on your social security card, and your new last name.
If the account is in joint names, list first, and then circle, the name of
the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of the form.
Sole proprietor. Enter your individual name as shown on your income
tax return on the “Name” line. You may enter your business, trade, or
“doing business as (DBA)” name on the “Business name/disregarded
entity name” line.
Partnership, C Corporation, or S Corporation. Enter the entity's name
on the “Name” line and any business, trade, or “doing business as
(DBA) name” on the “Business name/disregarded entity name” line.
Disregarded entity. Enter the owner's name on the “Name” line. The
name of the entity entered on the “Name” line should never be a
disregarded entity. The name on the “Name” line must be the name
shown on the income tax return on which the income will be reported.
For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for
U.S. federal tax purposes has a domestic owner, the domestic owner's
name is required to be provided on the “Name” line. If the direct owner
of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not
disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity's
name on the “Business name/disregarded entity name” line. If the owner
of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, you must complete an
appropriate Form W-8.
Note. Check the appropriate box for the federal tax classification of the
person whose name is entered on the “Name” line (Individual/sole
proprietor, Partnership, C Corporation, S Corporation, Trust/estate).
Limited Liability Company (LLC). If the person identified on the
“Name” line is an LLC, check the “Limited liability company” box only
and enter the appropriate code for the tax classification in the space
provided. If you are an LLC that is treated as a partnership for federal
tax purposes, enter “P” for partnership. If you are an LLC that has filed a
Form 8832 or a Form 2553 to be taxed as a corporation, enter “C” for
C corporation or “S” for S corporation. If you are an LLC that is
disregarded as an entity separate from its owner under Regulation
section 301.7701-3 (except for employment and excise tax), do not
check the LLC box unless the owner of the LLC (required to be
identified on the “Name” line) is another LLC that is not disregarded for
federal tax purposes. If the LLC is disregarded as an entity separate
from its owner, enter the appropriate tax classification of the owner
identified on the “Name” line.
Form W-9 (Rev. 12-2011)
Page 3
Other entities. Enter your business name as shown on required federal
tax documents on the “Name” line. This name should match the name
shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. You
may enter any business, trade, or DBA name on the “Business name/
disregarded entity name” line.
Exempt Payee
If you are exempt from backup withholding, enter your name as
described above and check the appropriate box for your status, then
check the “Exempt payee” box in the line following the “Business name/
disregarded entity name,” sign and date the form.
Generally, individuals (including sole proprietors) are not exempt from
backup withholding. Corporations are exempt from backup withholding
for certain payments, such as interest and dividends.

complete this form to avoid possible erroneous backup withholding.

However, the following payments made to a corporation and reportable on Form
1099-MISC are not exempt from backup withholding: medical and health care
payments, attorneys' fees, gross proceeds paid to an attorney, and payments for
services paid by a federal executive agency.
Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and
you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS
individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social
security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN
below.
If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either
your SSN or EIN. However, the IRS prefers that you use your SSN.
If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity
separate from its owner (see Limited Liability Company (LLC) on page 2),
enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the
disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or
partnership, enter the entity’s EIN.
Note. See the chart on page 4 for further clarification of name and TIN
combinations.
How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately.
To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security
Card, from your local Social Security Administration office or get this
form online at www.ssa.gov. You may also get this form by calling
1-800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer
Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for
Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for
an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/businesses
and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a
Business. You can get Forms W-7 and SS-4 from the IRS by visiting
IRS.gov or by calling 1-800-TAX-FORM (1-800-829-3676).
If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, write
“Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give
it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain
payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally
you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you
are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does
not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup
withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the
requester.
Note. Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a
TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.
Caution: A disregarded domestic entity that has a foreign owner must
use the appropriate Form W-8.
Part II. Certification
To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or
resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the
withholding agent even if item 1, below, and items 4 and 5 on page 4
indicate otherwise.
For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I
should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the
person identified on the “Name” line must sign. Exempt payees, see
Exempt Payee on page 3.
Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in
items 1 through 3, below, and items 4 and 5 on page 4.
1. Interest, dividend, and barter exchange accounts opened
before 1984 and broker accounts considered active during 1983.
You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the
certification.
2. Interest, dividend, broker, and barter exchange accounts
opened after 1983 and broker accounts considered inactive during
1983. You must sign the certification or backup withholding will apply. If
you are subject to backup withholding and you are merely providing
your correct TIN to the requester, you must cross out item 2 in the
certification before signing the form.
3. Real estate transactions. You must sign the certification. You may
cross out item 2 of the certification.

rents, royalties, goods (other than bills for merchandise), medical and
health care services (including payments to corporations), payments to
a nonemployee for services, payments to certain fishing boat crew
members and fishermen, and gross proceeds paid to attorneys
(including payments to corporations).

Secure Your Tax Records from Identity Theft
Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information
such as your name, social security number (SSN), or other identifying
information, without your permission, to commit fraud or other crimes.
An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return
using your SSN to receive a refund.
To reduce your risk:
• Protect your SSN,
• Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and
• Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.
If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a
notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number
printed on the IRS notice or letter.
If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you
think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable
credit card activity or credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline
at 1-800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039.
For more information, see Publication 4535, Identity Theft Prevention
and Victim Assistance.
Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a
system problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have
not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for
Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by
calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD
1-800-829-4059.
Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes.
Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to
mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act
is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established
legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering
private information that will be used for identity theft.
The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails. Also, the
IRS does not request personal detailed information through email or ask
taxpayers for the PIN numbers, passwords, or similar secret access
information for their credit card, bank, or other financial accounts.
If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS,
forward this message to phishing@irs.gov. You may also report misuse
of the IRS name, logo, or other IRS property to the Treasury Inspector
General for Tax Administration at 1-800-366-4484. You can forward
suspicious emails to the Federal Trade Commission at: spam@uce.gov
or contact them at www.ftc.gov/idtheft or 1-877-IDTHEFT
(1-877-438-4338).
Visit IRS.gov to learn more about identity theft and how to reduce
your risk.
Privacy Act Notice
Section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code requires you to provide your correct TIN to persons (including federal agencies) who are required to file information returns with
the IRS to report interest, dividends, or certain other income paid to you; mortgage interest you paid; the acquisition or abandonment of secured property; the cancellation

STEP 3: Acknowledgment
The public employer identied in Step 2 has identied you as an independent contractor or another classication other than a public
employee. Ohio law requires that you acknowledge in writing that you have been informed that the public employer identied in Step
2 has classied you as an independent contractor or another classication other than a public employee for the services described in
Step 2 and that you have been advised that contributions to OPERS will not be made on your behalf for these services.
In accordance with Ohio Administrative Code section 145-1-42(A)(2), an independent contractor means an individual who:
• Is a party to a bilateral agreement which may be a written document, ordinance or resolution that denes the compensation,
rights, obligations, benets and responsibilities of both parties;
• Is paid a fee, retainer or other payment by contractual arrangement for particular services;
• Is not eligible for workers’ compensation or unemployment compensation;
• May not be eligible for employee fringe benets such as vacation or sick leave;
• Does not appear on a public employer’s payroll;
• Is required to provide his own supplies and equipment, and provide and pay his assistants or replacements if necessary;
• Is not controlled or supervised by personnel of the public employer as to the manner of work; and
• Should receive an Internal Revenue Service form 1099 for income tax reporting purposes.
An independent contractor is not a public employee and shall not become a contributor to the retirement system. If you disagree with
the public employer’s classication, you may contact OPERS to request a determination as to whether you are a public employee
eligible for OPERS contributions for these services. Ohio law provides that a request for a determination must be made within
ve years after you begin providing personal services to the public employer, unless you are able to demonstrate through medical
records to the Board’s satisfaction that at the time the ve-year period ended, you were physically or mentally incapacitated and
unable to request a determination. Under the OPERS Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) and the OPERS Retiree Medical
Account (RMA), re-employed retirees who are not independent contractors are not eligible for a monthly allowance or reimbursement
of any medical expenses incurred during the re-employment period. If you are not an independent contractor and receive an
allowance or reimbursements, you may be liable to OPERS and/or the applicable plan.
By signing this form, you are acknowledging that the public employer for whom you are providing personal services has informed
you that you have been classied as an independent contractor or another classication other than a public employee and that no
contributions will be remitted to OPERS for the personal services you provide to the public employer. If you entered into a contract
to provide services as an independent contractor, you are acknowledging that you meet the requirements of an “independent
contractor” as that term is dened in Ohio Administrative Code section 145-1-42(A)(2). If you begin to provide services as an
independent contractor to the same employer from which you retired, or to any employer if less than two months after the retirement
allowance commences, you are acknowledging the pension portion of your benet will be forfeited during the period of the contract.
You are acknowledging that the annuity portion of your benet will be suspended and will be paid in a lump sum upon termination
of the contract, and you may be liable to the retirement system for any amounts incorrectly paid from the plan(s). You are also
acknowledging that you are not eligible for a monthly allowance or reimbursement of medical expenses incurred during the period
you are providing services under the OPERS HRA or the OPERS RMA, and you may be liable to OPERS and/or the applicable plan
for any allowance or reimbursements received. This acknowledgment will remain valid as long as you continue to provide the same
services to the same employer with no break in service regardless of whether the initial contract period is extended by any additional
agreement of the parties. You also acknowledge that you understand you have the right to request a determination of your eligibility
for OPERS membership if you disagree with the public employer’s classication. This form must be retained by the public
employer and a copy sent to OPERS. The public employer’s failure to retain this acknowledgment may extend your right to
request a determination beyond the ve years referenced above.
