The IRS requires that LME obtain the Social Security number or tax identification number of all payees. Without a Social Security or tax identification number, your payments will be subject to a non-refundable, 24% withholding under IRS regulations. In addition, if the IRS name and tax identification number does not match the Social Security Administration name and tax identification number, IRS regulations may require withholding.
