To effectively do business with Cornell, suppliers should complete and submit a Supplier Information form and an IRS W-9 form. These forms are necessary to ensure the following:
IRS Form W-9

ACH Self-Enrollment allows Cornell to securely and economically pay vendors and other payees through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) system (i.e., direct deposit). For vendors, this service is a new and efficient alternative to receiving paper check payments. Cornell can then issue ACH payments to vendors through its financial system. Once a vendor enrolls, they can manage their own ACH enrollment information.
