***************************************************

* WHAT IS AN EIN (FEDERAL TAX ID NUMBER)? *

A Federal Tax ID Number is issued by the IRS to business entities. It is also known as an EIN, or Employer Identification Number. For simplicity, we will refer to it as the EIN.

An EIN is to a business what a Social Security Number is to an individual. It basically identifies your LLC to the IRS.

Even though it is called an Employer Identification Number, it does not mean that you have to have employees.

************************************

* WHAT IS ARE EINs USED FOR? *

EINs are used for:

– Opening business checking, savings, or investment accounts.
– Filing taxes.
– Handling employee payroll (if applicable).
– Obtaining business lines of credit or business loans.
– Obtaining credit cards in the name of the LLC.
– Applying for business licenses.

**************************************

-- WHAT DOES AN EIN LOOK LIKE? --

An EIN is similar to a Social Security Number in that it has 9 digits. To differentiate an EIN from an SSN, there are 2 digits followed by a hyphen and then 7 more digits.

An EIN will look like this: 12 – 3456789

HOW MUCH DOES AN EIN COST?

NOTHING, FREE, NADA
***********************************

* ALREADY HAVE AN EIN? *

If you already have an EIN (before forming your LLC), it’s most likely attached to a Sole Proprietorship. This is quite a common mistake.

You’ll need to close out that EIN and get a different one for your LLC (after your LLC is approved).

********************************************

* OPENING A BUSINESS BANK ACCOUNT *

You will need your EIN and your approved LLC documents (Articles of Organization, Certificate of Organization, Certificate of Formation, etc) to open a business checking account.
