Instructions for Bulk TIN Matching

Avoid costly IRS TIN mismatch penalties—use Sovos 1099 Pro's Bulk TIN Matching Service! Bulk TIN checking is an essential compliance and risk mitigation service that identifies Recipient Name/TIN mismatches prior to filing with the IRS. Penalties can be assessed at up to $580 per record at the IRS's discretion. 

Effective August 2022, all Bulk TIN uploads must be submitted via the software’s built‐in Bulk TIN Match Upload Wizard. The Service Bureau cannot accept nor process manual file submissions (e.g., .txt, .csv, or .xlsx files). For customers not interested in purchasing our software or submitting via the Wizard, Sovos 1099 Pro suggests www.TINCheck.com for bulk and individual Name/TIN validations.
