MiklosCPA EIN services
A time saving and cost effective way to
obtain an Employer Identification Number (EIN)
Does your business need an EIN?
The Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a business-identifying number used for filing income taxes with the IRS. Many businesses are required by federal law to have an Employer Identification Number (EIN). With very limited exceptions, partnerships, corporations, and any businesses with employees are required to have an EIN.

Foreign-owned entities doing business in the USA are required to have an EIN and may have to make additional filings. Businesses that change ownership or structure (e.g. partnership to a corporation) will need to obtain a new EIN. An IRS Form SS-4 is submitted to the IRS to obtain the EIN. Obtaining an EIN can take four to five weeks if you apply by mail.
Foreigners looking to start a business in the USA will need a tax identification number such as an SSN or ITIN to obtain an EIN. We can assist with that need, even if you may not have an ITIN!
We understand starting up and running a business can be a time-consuming task in itself. Time can be short when doing additional research into the procedures and requirements in obtaining an EIN. Not to worry!
MiklosCPA has helped many businesses in different industries to obtain their EINs and set up other accounting-related situations. We can assist your company by processing the paperwork and getting the EIN in as little as a few days versus the few weeks for a mailed in application on your own. Give us a call and we can show you how we can help you with your EIN concerns and much more!
