Substitute Form W-9

To submit vendor information to be inputted into the State Financial System we need a Substitute Form W9 as issued by the New York State Office of the State Comptroller. This form has all the required information for a vendor to be issued a designated SFS Vendor Number unique for doing business with the State of New York. Without an SFS Vendor Number the State of New York WILL NOT issue payment for any good or service provided.
