Legal Forms & Documents
Vertex42 is not an expert in legal matters. However, there are some issues that have come up so frequently that we have needed templates or forms for our own use, and we have made some of these available. For other types of legal forms, you might consider a website such as RocketLawyer.com or FormSwift.com.

Common Tax Forms
The following are some very common forms needed by almost all US businesses (links to irs.gov):
- W9 Form - Used by employees or businesses when a business requests a federal tax ID. For freelancers and contractors, this form would be requested by the business that will need to send a 1099-MISC for the work they do.

- W2 Form- Given by a business to each employee (see this link for the form and rules).
