Tax ID tips

Generally, a sole proprietor should file only one Form SS-4 and needs
only one EIN, regardless of the number of businesses operated as a sole
proprietorship or trade names under which a business operates.
However, if the proprietorship incorporates or enters into a partnership,
a new EIN is required. Also, each corporation in an affiliated group
must have its own EIN. For Non-Employee business arrangements,
order the IRS Independent Contractor Agreement Template.

WARNING: The Internal Revenue Service has issued several
recent consumer warnings on the fraudulent use of the IRS name or logo
by scamsters trying to gain access to consumers’ financial information in
order to steal their identity and assets. Beware of unscrupulous
individuals and firms who entice new business owners via the Internet to
disclose confidential, personally-identifiable information to them in
exchange for very small fees under the pretense of filing for a Federal
Tax ID Number. Once your Social Security Number and other
confidential information are known, you are at serious risk of identity
theft! When you place your order through TaxIDAuthority.com, your
personally identifiable information is protected and secure through SSL

lease or otherwise release your confidential information.
