Questions people ask
Can I get an EIN if I don't live in the US?
Yes. Non-residents can get an EIN for their US LLC. They cannot use the IRS online form, so the application is sent to the IRS by other means. We handle that for you.
Do I need an SSN or an ITIN?
No. Your LLC gets its EIN without an SSN or an ITIN.
How long does it take?
Usually 5–10 business days after we submit your application. The IRS sets the pace, so it can sometimes take longer. We tell you as soon as your EIN is issued.
My LLC was formed by another company. Can you still help?
Yes. We work with LLCs from any provider and any state. We only need your Articles of Organization and your details.
What if the IRS rejects my application?
Rejections are rare because we check everything first. If it happens because of our mistake, we fix it and file again at no extra cost.
What do I receive at the end?
Your 9-digit EIN and the IRS confirmation letter, in your dashboard and your email. Keep the letter: banks and Stripe often ask for it.
