TIN CHECK

Back Office Word of the Week 9/2/19 – TIN CHECK

When On-boarding a new vendor, a TIN Check is an important component of ensuring compliance. A TIN Check verifies that either a Social Security Number (SSN) or an Employer Identification Number (EIN) is valid and matches a person’s or company’s name in the IRS Database. A mismatch occurs when the IRS cannot verify a Name with a corresponding TIN number.

ICG’s Vendor Onboarding solution includes a 3rd party punch-out to verify a suppliers SSN or EIN is valid in the IRS database along with ensuring potential suppliers are not on any government watch lists.
