Please let us know the number of participants you anticipate at events where food will be provided. NOTE: If the lecturer is a U.S. citizen, the coordinator will send the lecturer a W-9 form and Speaker's Contract to be completed. Both must be attached to the honorarium voucher which the coordinator will complete. If the lecturer is NOT a U.S. citizen, the coordinator will forward the speaker's email address to the tax manager who will send the appropriate tax documents to the speaker.
