How to Apply For an EIN

An EIN or Employer Identification Number is obtained from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for no charge at their website IRS.gov.

Here are some of the main questions our clients have about their EIN application

Name of Entity – Should I put my DBA here?
Address – Do I list my address or my registered agent?
Name of Responsible Party (Principal Officer) – There is only room for one name, how do I list more?
Number of LLC Members – If this will change, what do I put in there now?
Type of Entity – What do I put for my LLC?
Highest No of Employees – If I work out of my home shouldn’t I list employees under Household?
Previous EIN – I already have an EIN, why do I need another one?
Title – Why can’t I list President here?
