thank you for the information.
when I told apple that I was a foreigner and that I should not send the w-9 form, they told me that I had to send the w-9 form to activate my account no matter what. in this case, I had to send the w-9 form. so if I send the W-8BEN form, if I add to apple as a cover letter that the w-9 form should not be used. there is nothing to be afraid of, right? because in the same way, google wants me to send the w-9 form to activate my account. I guess I will have to fill out the w-9 form and send it to google and then fill out the w-8ben form and send it.
