Figuring your tax ID can be complicated but it does not have to be

by Charles Anozie

After you have gone through the process of research and deciding what type of tax business structure you are going to have, you are ready to submit your application for your tax ID number. Many people like to follow up on their application process and identify the status of tax ID number. When you submit the application online it is much easier to check tax ID status, than when you send the paper application via the mail and then try to get someone on the phone at the IRS.

Check Your Status
When you submit your application through IRS-EIN-TAX-ID.com you will receive an order number from your request along with an email that confirms your request for an EIN. There is a link on the website that you will click on that will ask you to enter your order number or your email address used on the application. From there you will follow the steps which will allow you to check your application status.

Is It Necessary?
It is not a requirement nor is it particularly necessary for you to follow up on your EIN status. When most people submit their EIN application they get an email with their EIN number, and then they are ready to utilize their number immediately in most instances. There are some applications that get a reference 101 error which is a very common error. It simply means it will take additional time to process your application; anywhere from 7 to 10 business days. People who do not get the email with their EIN number within 24 hours will use the website to check their application status. It could be something as simple as the time you submitted your application as to the reason for the delay.
Using this website will allow you to check the status of your application and get additional information about the tax ID application process.
