See contractor payment records before you book the consultation
Clients tell you upfront how many contractors they're reporting, whether payment totals and tax ID records are on file, and how close their filing deadline is—plus upload payment ledgers—so you know before the consultation whether their books are ready or need cleanup.

The questions your team needs answered
Every contractor payment reporting intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| How many contractors do you need to report payments for? | Contractor count is a proxy for scope and fee, and a 'Not sure' answer tells you the client needs a scoping conversation before pricing. |
| Do you have records of the total amount paid to each contractor this year? | Whether payment totals are already documented is the clearest early signal of whether the engagement is a clean filing job or a records cleanup first. |
| Do you have current contractor information such as name, address, and tax ID on file? | Missing name, address, or tax ID details on contractors means forms can't be filed until that information is collected, which affects timeline and effort. |
| What type of entity are you filing this report for? | Entity type shapes filing complexity and who on your team should handle the lead, from an individual filer to a larger corporation. |
| What is the filing deadline you are working toward? | The deadline answer carries the widest weight range in the catalog, making it the strongest single indicator of how fast the lead needs a response. |
| Are you authorized to provide financial and contractor information on behalf of this entity? | A no answer here means the person submitting the intake may not be able to legally provide the entity's financial data, which should stop the lead before scheduling. |

Built for contractor payment reporting workflows
| Cliont capability | Contractor Payment Reporting application |
|---|---|
| Conditional scoring logic | Leads that select 'Already past deadline' or 'Within the next 2 weeks' are weighted highest so time-sensitive contractor reporting requests surface ahead of leads with no set deadline. |
| Readiness signals in the score | Separate yes/no answers on payment totals and contractor tax ID records let you see whether a client's books are filing-ready or need cleanup before you agree to take the work. |
| Document collection | Clients can upload existing payment ledgers or prior contractor tax documents at intake so you're not requesting basic records after the consultation is already booked. |
| CRM routing with context | Entity type and contractor count are passed to your CRM alongside the score, so nonprofit, small business, and larger corporate leads can be routed to whoever handles that segment. |
Common contractor payment reporting lead scenarios
Past deadline, no records
A client selects 'Already past deadline' but answers no to having payment totals on file, signaling both urgency and a cleanup job before any forms can be filed.
Larger business, clean books
A corporation with 21+ contractors confirms it has both payment totals and current tax ID records, making it a strong fit for a straightforward filing engagement.
Unsure of contractor count
A client picks 'Not sure' on how many contractors they need to report, flagging a scoping conversation before a deadline or fee can be discussed.
Nonprofit with no set deadline
A nonprofit organization has no specific deadline yet and incomplete contractor information, indicating a lower-urgency lead that still needs qualifying before scheduling.
Authorized representative filing
Someone other than the business owner submits the intake and confirms they're authorized to provide financial and contractor information, which determines whether the lead can move forward at all.

Contractor Payment Reporting lead-intake FAQs
What happens when a client doesn't know how many contractors they paid?
The intake includes a 'Not sure' option on contractor count, which routes the lead for a scoping conversation rather than an immediate quote, since fees typically depend on volume.
How does the intake surface clients whose books aren't ready?
Answering no to having payment totals or current contractor tax ID information carries lower weight than a yes, so those leads score differently and signal that cleanup work may be needed before reporting can start.
Can the intake confirm someone is actually authorized to submit this information?
Yes, the intake asks directly whether the person filling it out is authorized to provide financial and contractor data on behalf of the entity, and a no answer scores far lower than a yes.
Does the intake capture how urgent the filing deadline is?
Yes, clients select where they stand relative to the deadline, from already past due to no specific deadline yet, and each option carries a different weight so the most time-sensitive requests stand out.
Does entity type change how a lead should be handled?
The intake asks whether the filing is for an individual, nonprofit, small business, or larger corporation, which helps you route the lead to the right person and anticipate scope before the consultation.
What if a contractor's tax ID or address is missing?
The intake asks separately whether current contractor information such as name, address, and tax ID is on file, so incomplete records are visible before you commit to a filing timeline.
