I'm glad I finally found and active DIY community online! I was on freebieauthority.com and gratisoffersguide.com but the boards there are pretty much dead.

I recently completed computer-offer.com for their $2000 gift-card offer and just got it in the mail the other day. I did the site again for another $2000 gift-card under a different name and the gift card for that account has been shipped as well, but I haven't received it yet. I'll post pics of it when I do!

Here's the first

YES!

All NT sites require w-9 forms for prizes over $2000

for prizes over $600 actually. Furthermore its applied retroactively
so 2 $400 prizes also = w-9 form wink

Yes, I had to fill out a w9 form for that... anything over $600, as someone said above, requires a substitute w9 form I think.

Thats a pretty new rule. What about stuff before this rule. Do you think they will add it to the tab?

edit just to clarify, I used to not have to fill out the w9 for $500 cards, but for my last one I did. But do you think they will add the amount of stuff I didn't do one for to my tab?

I don't know if it depends on which state you are in or not, but in Michigan if you receive a "gift" with a value of $600 dollars or more you are required by law to pay taxes on it... has anyone else had a different experience?

Whether it's their rule or not, it's law and has been for a long time. Regardless of whether a company asks for a W9, or even sends a 1099, you are required to claim any gifts/prizes with a total value greater than $600. It's federal law, plus state law in many states.

I expect they will total all prizes for you in the calendar year when they send out 1099's. They don't lineedli a W9 for every prize to count each one as taxable. The W9 is not sent to the IRS, it's only used by the company as an official record of where to send the 1099-MISC at tax time.
