OSC Vendor IDs and Ⱥ½»Porn Substitute Form W-9
In order to claim reimbursement for Mandated Services, Religious and Independent schools are required to have a Vendor record established in the Statewide Financial System and obtain an OSC Vendor ID number.Ìý While many schools have responded to initial requests from the Office of the State Comptroller and/or subsequent request from the Ⱥ½»Porn Department and been assigned a Vendor ID, there are many that have not complied.Ìý This will affect your ability to claim Mandated Services and CAP.
Following is a compilation of religious and independent schools listed by BEDS code number with the corresponding OSC Vendor ID.Ìý Please check this list to ascertain if your school has been assigned an OSC Vendor ID rather than calling the Office of the State Comptroller or the Department of Education.
