Missouri doesn't issue a state-level general contractor license. Licensing is handled by cities and counties. That makes tracking per-sub documentation even more important for GCs working across multiple jurisdictions. PaperBoss is subcontractor compliance software that automates the collection of COIs, W-9s, and Workers' Comp exemptions from every sub working on your projects in Missouri. No spreadsheets, no account signups for subs, no chasing.

Automated COI collection for Missouri subs

Send every sub a secure upload link. They upload their Certificate of Insurance in under a minute with no account, and PaperBoss captures the effective and expiration dates automatically.

W-9 collection at onboarding

Stop scrambling at 1099 season. Collect a signed W-9 from every Missouri subcontractor during onboarding and export a clean CSV for 1099-NEC filing in January.

Workers' Comp & exemption tracking

Track Workers' Comp certificates and exemption documents from every sub. Get alerts before coverage lapses so you're never exposed mid-project.

Audit-ready reporting

Export a full compliance report for any project, any sub, any date range. Hand it to your insurance auditor, your CPA, or a Missouri state inspector in seconds.

Frequently asked questions

How does contractor licensing work in Missouri?

Missouri handles contractor licensing at the local level. Cities and counties issue licenses, not the state. GCs working across jurisdictions need to track licensing requirements per municipality, in addition to standard COI and W-9 compliance.

How do I verify subcontractor insurance in Missouri?

The standard approach: request a Certificate of Insurance (COI) from each sub before work begins, confirm the coverage limits meet your contract requirements, confirm you're listed as Additional Insured, and track the expiration date. PaperBoss automates all four steps for Missouri GCs.

How do I collect W-9s from subs in Missouri?

The IRS requires you to collect a Form W-9 from any US contractor you pay $600 or more in a tax year so you can issue a 1099-NEC. PaperBoss sends each sub a secure upload link for their W-9 during onboarding, stores it encrypted, and exports clean data for 1099 season.

Does PaperBoss work for general contractors in Missouri?

Yes. PaperBoss is built for US general contractors in all 50 states, including Missouri. Document types, compliance workflows, and tax requirements (1099-NEC, W-9) are all US-specific.

How much does PaperBoss cost?

PaperBoss starts at $29/month for Starter, $79/month for Pro, and $149/month for Business. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.

Built for Missouri general contractors.

Every day without tracking is a day you’re exposed. One uninsured sub can cost you the whole job.
