In today's intricate world of compliance and financial transactions, understanding and properly completing tax-related forms like the DOA-6448 (R11/2012) is essential for entities and individuals engaging with agencies like the State of Wisconsin's Division of Executive Budget and Finance, Department of Administration State Controller’s Office. This form acts as a Substitute W-9, crucial for Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) Verification, and ensures that entities, whether individual sole proprietors, corporations, government entities, or other specified groups, can correctly report and verify their tax identification details to avoid backup withholding or potential penalties. The meticulous instructions accompanying the form guide through the proper entry of legal names, designations, addresses, and the appropriate TIN—be it a Social Security Number (SSN), Employer Identification Number (EIN), or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). Furthermore, certification by the taxpayer affirms their TIN's accuracy and declares their exemption status from backup withholding. The DOA-6448 form underscores the interplay between state-level operational requirements and federal tax regulations, aiming to streamline financial matters while ensuring compliance with broader tax reporting and withholding mandates.

If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. Individuals use federal form
Certification
You must cross out item 2 above if you have been notified by the IRS that you are currently subject to backup withholding because you have failed to report all interest and dividends on your tax return. For real estate transactions, item 2 does not apply. For mortgage interest paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, contributions to an individual retirement arrangement (IRA), and generally, payments other than interest and dividends, you are not required to sign the Certification, but you must provide your correct TIN.
Privacy Act Notice
Section 6109 requires you to furnish your correct TIN to persons who must file information returns with the IRS to report interest, dividends, and certain other income paid to you, mortgage interest you paid, the acquisition or abandonment of secured property, or contributions you made to an IRA. The IRS uses the numbers for
identification purposes and to help verify the accuracy of your tax return. You must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Payers must generally withhold 28% of taxable interest, dividend, and certain other payments to a payee who does not furnish a TIN to a payer. Certain penalties may also apply.
