Financial institutions are required to obtain tax ID numbers when opening an account, and the fact that it's an IRA doesn't exempt them from that requirement. They shouldn't have opened it without the W-9 in the first place, but apparently they did. So now they had to close it until they get the required documentation.

I wrote about the independent-contractor-vs-employee issue last year, see http://nctaxpro.wordpress.com/20...Broadly speaking, you are an employee when someone else - AKA the employer - has control over when and where you work and the processes by which you perform the work that you do for that individual. A DJ or bartender under some circumstances, I suppose, might qualify as an independent contractor at a restaurant, but the waitstaff, bus help, hosts, kitchen aides, etc. almost certainly would not.There's always risk in confronting an employer when faced with a situation like yours - my experience is that most employers know full well that they are violating the law when they treat employees as independent contractors, and for that reason they don't tolerate questions about that policy very well - so you definitely should tread cautiously if you want to keep this position. Nonetheless, I think you owe it to yourself to ask whether or not the restaurant intends to withhold federal taxes from your checks - if for no other reason than you don't want to get caught short when it comes to filing your own return, even if you don't intend to challenge the policy.

A single-member LLC is by default a disregarded entity. Assuming you have not made a u201ccheck-the-boxu201d election to have it treated as a corporation, this means for tax purposes, you are a sole proprietor.As a non-resident alien, you would not complete form W-9. You would likely prform W-8ECI, possibly W-8BEN.

Is the person requesting that you fill out this form going to be cutting you a check for this fee? In other words, is this broker fee a payment to you for services you rendered? Money that you need to declare as income and thus pay income taxes to the IRS?If not, if this check is for some other reason, then I donu2019t believe that you should complete this form.Iu2019m not a lawyer, so there could very well be something that I am unaware of, but it looks suspicious to me. I sure would like to know more about this issue.

Nobody who is legally able to answer can give you an answer. Doing so would constitute as legal advice.In giving you legal advice there will be the possibility of creating an unintended attorney-client relationship and any liability that might come along with that relationship.Go to a qualified lawyer or accountant.

Under FATCA, the Czech government has signed a treaty with the U.S. government where they agree to have financial institutions document whether or not U.S. citizens are account holders (and therefore, they pretty much have to document all account holders). So, if you do not fill out the W-9, the bank will have to close your account as you will not have provided sufficient evidence to document whether or not you are a U.S. citizen. Countries have been signing the treaties and starting to implement over the last couple of years - portions of the Czech treaty become effective in 2014.
