A new W9 is going to be issued. This will replace the current one for W9 (Rev 3-2024). The IRS has just released a draft version of Form W-9 for 2026, and this is no ordinary revision. If you’re a sole proprietor, a disregarded entity, or a digital asset broker, these changes could directly impact how you report your taxpayer identification number (TIN) and certifications.

Check out the links below for what will be changing.

I love my clients though at times a love hate relationship.

Very appreciative of my clients. Some I have had since right out of high school. Some I have lost due to them wanting to save a dime. Either way I run my business like your part of my extended family and your bookkeeping is my own.

So I have had a client that I help every other week and with many bookkeeping, payroll and budgeting tasks.

I have been given every year for 8 year even without asking a $5.00 raise each year by this client and they actually were even nice to give me a little Christmas bonus ever now and again for all the hard work on their budget annually.

I am being placed in a position in the last couple years of having to inquire about that courtesy which makes me uncomfortable. I know the client himself gives himself a raise for his positions and the one position I do 97% of the work. This year I inquired so I knew the my rate before the start of the year. He again gave himself a raise in the past 2 years on his 2 budget lines, as well as other positions got raises that ranged from $600 to $1200 additional for that one line alone.

He declined any raise to me this year even though I know what he budgeted for that budget line I get paid out of. He had the gall of mentioning that in 2025 I was taking 78% of that budget line with my bills and that I was paid in full for 2025. Well when a contractor bookkeeper, payroll processor and support person for software and paying the retirement and being educated in it does the work yes it is nice to be paid in full. However it is also nice that if you give someone a $5.00/year raise and then continue to raise that budget line and I am aware of it as I worked on that budget and made extra time to work on it that you at least offer a courtesy.

This is a client that I just never had to raise the price as they did it for me and I felt appreciated. This is when I have moments of asking is it worth it to be my own boss? When I am being nickeled and dimed by others that have older kids that have moved out and I have a 5 year old I have to support. I have clients that do not treat me like a human. However I wake up and I run this business and try my best to be better then those clients that treat me only as their bookkeeper and not a human being with a family to support myself. I get keeping your money in your own pocket as a business owner, but if someone bent over backwards for your company and met every deadline given to them if not just did it ahead of time, why would you just stop rewarding them or being with them as a client.

I am worth it!! 2026 may bring me some heart ache in my business but it is starting also out as a new fresh start. It will be sad to see client go but I have to know my worth as well and I am worth it!

📣 1099 Season Is Coming — Don’t Wait!

As the year winds down, now is the perfect time to gather all your 1099 information and get it to your bookkeeper (hi, that’s me! 😉).

Getting this done early helps avoid:
❌ Last-minute scrambling
❌ Missing vendor details
❌ Filing penalties

Make sure you have:
✅ W-9s from all contractors
✅ Total amounts paid in 2025
✅ Correct legal names & addresses

SPECIAL NOTE:
✅ Payment method (ACH, check, cash — no 1099s on credit card/PayPal and as of 2025 now Venmo Bank & Credit Card!)

✨ Getting this info to your bookkeeper before year-end keeps your business compliant and stress-free when January hits.
