  • W9 vs W8/W8 BEN

    I'm an Indian F-1 Student who just started his OPT period. I got a contract employment offer, and they've sent me a W-9. I've been in the US for the last 2 years now. Should I be filling a W9 or a W8 or W8BEN?

    If you came on F1 two years ago, and you hadn't been in the US on F or J status before, you would still be a nonresident alien, and would fill out W-8BEN.

    This is my personal opinion and is not to be construed as legal advice.
