Your data
We keep as little as possible
When you download, we keep a copy of the details you entered so we can improve the service — with any SSN, EIN or other tax ID shortened to its last 4 digits, and never your signature. Ask us to delete it any time.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no account, no payment and no limit on how many forms you fill.
Do I send the form to the IRS?
No. W-9, W-8BEN and W-8BEN-E go to the person or company that asked you for them (your client, bank or platform). They keep it on file.
Are these the current IRS versions?
Yes — W-9 (Rev. March 2024), W-8BEN (Rev. October 2021) and W-8BEN-E (Rev. October 2021) are the latest final revisions published by the IRS. We fill the official PDFs.
What do you keep after I download?
A copy of the details you entered, with any tax ID shortened to its last 4 digits. We never keep your signature. You get a reference ID and can ask us to delete the copy at any time.
Is this tax advice?
No. Filowise helps you fill forms accurately, but it is not a tax advisor. If you are unsure which status or treaty article applies to you, ask a qualified tax professional.
