Employment and Tax Information

This page is designed to help models understand their employment and tax status while streaming on this website.

Employment status of models

Models are NOT employees of MyFreeCams.com!

Models are independent contractors.

We are unable to provide any sort of proof of employment or income verification.

For more details as to your legal status with respect to MyFreeCams.com, please read your Model Contract that is available in your Model Admin.

Requirement of a Social Security Number or Tax ID

Based on current laws, models from the US, Europe, and some other countries are required to provide their Tax ID before receiving payment.

Tax information for models

W9 tax form

Models that are residents or citizens of the USA digitally sign a W9 tax form which is just a formal request for a tax-payer identification number (your social security number). This allows us to pay you the full amount you earn without any backup withholding. We keep the W9 form on file, and it does not get sent to the IRS.

1099 tax form

After the end of each year, before January 31, if you have earned over $600.00 in the previous year, we will send out a 1099-MISC Tax Form which will contain the total income you have received during the prior year from our company. This will help you file your annual tax returns. A copy also gets sent to the IRS.

We do not withhold any portion of your payment for taxes. You are responsible for reporting, filing, and paying all of your taxes yourself!

Please speak with a qualified tax advisor or accountant if you have any questions.

Background checks

Your privacy is our top priority.

To the best of our knowledge, appearing on MyFreeCams.com will not appear on any background checks.
