About this file
This is a Certification Statement form for Multnomah County, Oregon, used to verify the legal business structure and independent contractor status of vendors entering into contracts with the county. The form requires contractors to complete two sections: Section A addresses entities organized as corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships, or nonprofit corporations authorized to do business in Oregon; Section B applies to sole proprietors operating as independent contractors. For independent contractors in Section B, the form requires certification under penalty of perjury that the contractor maintains control over service delivery methods, possesses all necessary licenses and certifications, and is customarily engaged in independent business operations. Contractors must also verify at least three of six criteria to establish independent contractor status, including maintaining a separate business location, bearing the risk of loss, providing services to multiple clients within a 12-month period, making significant financial investments, or having authority to hire and terminate additional personnel.
This certification document serves as a compliance instrument for Multnomah County to ensure proper contractor classification and legal authorization to conduct business in Oregon. The form requires the contractor's signature, date, and title and references ORS Chapter 671 regarding architects and landscape contractors and ORS Chapter 701 governing construction contractors, indicating that contractors in regulated trades must provide proof of required registration. The document is marked as a sample form with a revision date of May 2, 2022, suggesting it is standard template language used across Multnomah County contracts. No specific pricing, funding amounts, or contract term information is contained within this certification document, as it functions solely as a prerequisite verification tool for contractor eligibility and business structure classification.
