Are you saying that if you are an independent contractor without a federal tax ID number, they don't need your Social to issue you a 1099? This request and the request for banking info could be two separate issues.

I don't believe I have ever given my SSN to a school. I could be wrong beacuse the schools that I am currently working I have already worked at least once before. You only get a 1099 if you make over $600 in any given district.

$600 is true but if they're paying you as an independent contractor, they can require that information from you. I've worked playoff games that I've never been to before and still had to provide that information.

Some schools here ask for SS numbers on pay vouchers, and some ask for your official's number that the state provides you. I've never had a school take out taxes either way.

Same here in the Constitution State, except change "some" to "many".

In Ohio, we're required to provide our SSN and DOB at every school we work. One of those vouchers would make life easy for an identity thief.

The state requires DOB in order to check up on deadbeat dads.

If their were no deadbeat dads, there would be no reason for the "check up" just like if there were no unsportsmanlike coaches, there would be no reason for technicals.

You've never given a technical to a player? So when are you going to finally work your first game?

MP--You got me. I will not go back and edit the original, however, just imagine that it said coach/player, etc., on the original. Thanks.
