From the IRS transition from FIRE to IRIS, to updates in Form W-9 and evolving 1099 reporting thresholds, these changes are interconnected \u2013 and they expose gaps in data quality, processes, and systems that many organizations rely on today. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In this session, we\u2019ll walk through the most pressing challenges companies will face, including new credentialing and access requirements, stricter data validation, increased reporting volumes, and potential misalignment between federal and state requirements. We\u2019ll also explore how these changes elevate the importance of accurate W-9 collection and ongoing vendor data management. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alongside these challenges, we\u2019ll highlight practical approaches organizations can take to simplify compliance, improve data accuracy, and reduce risk. This will include a brief demonstration of Avalara\u2019s 1099 and W-9 solution, showing how automated W-9 collection, TIN validation, centralized data management, and streamlined filing workflows can help organizations better manage these changes and prepare for upcoming filing requirements. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of what\u2019s changing, where the biggest risks lie, and how to better position their organization for a smooth transition into the IRIS filing era.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"raw":"Knowledge Hub Presented By: Avalara The 2026 reporting year introduces a series of changes that will put new pressure on how organizations manage 1099 and W-9 compliance.
