I wish to know which tax form should i fill in for a foreign publisher. For your information, I'm residing in OZ and would like to join the linkshare program. However, I stopped in the middle of the process of registering since I don't know anything about tax forms/IRS/legal matters. I've been aware that tmpexpress and text-link-ads wants their publisher to fill in a tax form if they are residing outside of US. What are the procedures of getting->submitting a tax form? For your information, I'm working as an individual. Do I have to submit a tax form for every program that i joined as a publisher? Would appreciate if someone could help me with this issue. Thanks.
If I'm not mistaken for foreign publishers without US activities it is a W8 form. Adsense and now Fastclick allows you to do it online by filling in a form on their sites stating that you are a non-US citizen.
