Filing Instructions

1. Enter your contractor information.
2. Enter the project information.
3. Identify who worked for you on this project, including any employees or subcontractors.
   • If you are a single-member corporation, you are considered an employee of your own business. For more information, see Withholding Fact Sheet 6 – Corporate Officers.
   • Enter a subcontractor’s Minnesota ID number, not their Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN). You’ll find their Minnesota ID number on their certified Contractor Affidavit or confirmation page.
   • If your subcontractor used a Social Security number, include all nine digits. See federal Form W-9 or Form 1099 for their Social Security number, or contact them directly.
   • Complete all fields marked with an asterisk (*). These fields are required.
4. Identify who hired you for this project.
   • If the government agency directly hired you, the information will automatically populate in the required fields.
   • If another business hired you, enter the required information. 
5. Once you enter all the required information, select Submit.
6. If we approve your Contractor Affidavit, you will see a confirmation page. To print this page, select "Printer Friendly Version" and use your browser's print function.
   • If the government agency hired you, send the confirmation page to the agency.
   • If another business hired you, send the confirmation page to the business.

You must complete a new Contractor Affidavit with the correct information. We will compare your original Contractor Affidavit with the new one and note any changes. Once approved, we will provide you a new affidavit number. Provide the new affidavit number to the person who hired you.
