Add taxes to your task list

To all our US publishers: before you spend the holidays gorging on sugar-coated culinary delicacies and spending quality time pelting your loved ones with snowballs, please take a moment to update your AdSense account tax information so we can issue your tax form for 2007. Verifying that your tax info is up to date now helps ensure that earnings won't be withheld from you later. You'll receive a tax form 1099-MISC if you meet the following requirements:
  • You submitted a Form W-9, are not a corporation, and were paid at least US $600 in 2007 OR
  • You indicated that you are subject to backup withholding and had taxes withheld
For those publishers whose earnings are reported, please note that payments dated in 2007 will be reported in 2007. This means that unpaid earnings from 2007 that are rolled over to 2008 (for example, December 2007 earnings paid in January 2008) will not be included.

To resubmit or update your tax information, please follow these steps:
  1. Log in to your AdSense account
  2. Click the 'My Account' tab
  3. Click the 'Tax information' link
  4. Follow the instructions on the 'Tax information' page to update your current form, or to submit a new form.
Don't forget to add "update AdSense tax information" to your to-do list!
