Understanding your Employer Identification Number
An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a nine-digit number that IRS assigns in the following format: XX-XXXXXXXX. However, for employee plans, an alpha (for example, P) or the plan number (e.g. 003) may follow the EIN. The IRS uses the number to identify taxpayers that are required to file various business tax returns. EINs are used by employers, sole proprietors, corporations, partnerships, nonprofit associations, trusts, estates of decedents, government agencies, certain individuals, and other business entities.
Warning: Please be advised that it is against the law to use an EIN for anything other than business use. An EIN cannot be used as a Social Security Number.
