Hi, Leah
Gather Points™: 6,250

I just tried to cash out, and reach $600 for the year (I'm already at $500) and it's telling me that I need to submit a W-9, which I already did. Walker and I sent ours in TOGETHER!!

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

It's never happened to me, but I've never made that much on here. Since you're married, aren't you supposed to be submitting it together? (see how much I don't know?)

Good luck, Leah,

Marilyn

I'm sure you're frustrated, but I gotta say that I kinda wish I had your problem right now.

Never made $600.00 in one year, wish I could
Lee P. Jul 30, 2009, 10:30pm EDT
Wow, what a nice problem to have. I don't think they will be asking me to submit one....LOL.

No, I only sent in the w-9 last year, but I think a person may have to do them every year.
Leah Christensen Jul 30, 2009, 10:34pm EDT
Thanks everyone. I just sent an e-mail to someone at Gather support. We'll see what happens.
Janet "Jax" B. Jul 30, 2009, 10:36pm EDT
It will probably just take a day or two to straighten out...
Sophie S. Jul 30, 2009, 10:39pm EDT
Nope, not really sure how much I have made this year either.
Sophie S. Jul 30, 2009, 10:41pm EDT
I'm at $95 right now.
Debra H. Jul 30, 2009, 11:05pm EDT
Has it been more than a year? Maybe you have to do it every year like W-4's?
Elaine A. Jul 31, 2009, 12:47am EDT
No I don't ever get that much points
Leah Christensen Jul 31, 2009, 12:58am EDT
I sent it in during this calendar year, so something must have screwed up. I sure hope it only takes a few days to straighten out. Yeah all those points are a nice problem to have, but not being able to access that which is mine is really really frustrating!!!

I've never gotten that much here. Have you tried contacting gather directly?
It's Not Me w. Jul 31, 2009, 11:31am EDT
Can't say I'll ever get there on Gather. I'm lucky to get a Border's Gift Card.
Sarah (I want points) Jul 31, 2009, 2:51pm EDT
I'm sorry! I hope you get this straightened out.
I hope you got it straightened out too. Frustration attacks.
I had to send one in last year, but have not yet (quite) reached it this year. Actually, come to think of it, I must be pretty close. I presumed my info from last year would suffice, but I am not sure.

Just checked. My next cash in will trigger it- I'm at $580 for the year.

Taxes suck!!! Now I'm pushing like hell on MyLot, because I haven't reached payout there yet.
