Accounts Receivable/Payable

What information is required from a vendor prior to payment for services?

Pursuant to Internal Revenue Service Regulations, vendors must furnish their Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). If this number is not provided, the vendor may be subject to a 20% withholding on each payment. To avoid this 20% withholding and to insure accurate information is reported to the IRS and the State, please complete the Vendor TIN Verification Form.

I have submitted a bill to the Town of Canandaigua. When will I receive payment?

Bills are due on the first day of each month. The Town Board approves all payments to vendors during their regularly scheduled monthly Town Board meetings. Checks are then issued and mailed usually within 48 hours of approval.
