Tools for Christian Science Nurses and Christian Science Practitioners


Grants from the NFCSN are paid directly to the Christian Science nurse, facility, or Christian Science practitioner providing the service.

The following are some resources to help facilitate this process:

  • IRS Form W-9 -- Required. Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification.
  • Invoice Tool -- Optional. Create and submit an invoice for Christian Science practitioner services.
  • Preferred payment method -- Optional. Receive payment via direct deposit to your checking or savings account. You may also specify payment by check or PayPal.
  • Payment of Invoices Letter to Providers -- Information to help Christian Science nurses and Christian Science practitioners partner with us and receive prompt payment from the Fund.
  • Christian Science Nurse Scope of Services -- Letter from Christian Science Nursing Activities of The Mother Church describing what the care of the Christian Science nurse includes and does not include.

- IRS Form W-9

At the end of the year, The Principle Foundation issues an IRS Form 1099 to each Christian Science nurse and Christian Science practitioner to whom we have made payment. For the 1099, we need your taxpayer ID (e.g., social security number) which is reported on the IRS Form W-9.

To keep this confidential information as secure as possible, we request that you complete the W-9 online where it will be encrypted and stored on a secure server. (You will need the most up-to-date version of Adobe Flash Player for the online form to work.)

- Invoice Tool

For reporting and audit purposes, The Principle Foundation requires an invoice in order to make payment. If it is not your practice to send invoices, please use the link below to provide us with the documentation we need to make payment.

- Preferred Payment Method (Optional)

The Principle Foundation prefers to make payment to Christian Science practitioners and Christian Science nurses by direct deposit (ACH) because it is quicker for us and for you. We can also make payment by check and PayPal. Please use the link below to provide us with your preferred payment method.
