How the routes compare
Every route to an EIN, side by side.
You can handle the filing yourself or hand it to us. What you pay for here is the preparation, a human reading the form before it goes in, and someone who takes it up with the IRS if it comes back rejected.
Online, yourself, at IRS.gov
The number is issued before you close the tab, but only if the responsible party holds an SSN or ITIN, and only while the IRS assistant is open on weekdays.
Same sessionFax Form SS-4 yourself
Open to applicants without an SSN. You prepare the form, send it, and wait for the return fax with no visibility in between.
About 4 business daysMail Form SS-4 yourself
The slowest route, and the most painful to correct — a single wrong box means starting the wait over.

What is an EIN?
An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a nine-digit federal tax ID the IRS assigns to a business, much like a Social Security Number identifies an individual. Banks, payroll providers, and tax filings commonly require one.
How long does it take to get my EIN?
We prepare and file standard applications within 1–3 business days, and priority applications within 24 hours of receipt during business hours. Issuance is then the IRS's decision — we cannot guarantee how quickly the agency responds, and priority processing applies only to eligible applications.
Do I need an EIN for my business?
An EIN is generally required to open a business bank account, hire employees, or file federal returns for a corporation, partnership, or multi-member LLC. Many single-member LLCs request one to keep business and personal identifiers separate.
Is this service affiliated with the IRS?
No. EIN Filing is a private document preparation and filing assistance service. An EIN can be obtained for free directly from the IRS at IRS.gov. Our fee covers expert review, error prevention, and filing support.
Why use EIN Filing if an EIN can be obtained directly from the IRS?
While an Employer Identification Number can be obtained directly from IRS.gov at no government fee, EIN Filing provides comprehensive private commercial services: authorized Third-Party Designee representation, manual human review to help prevent rejections (such as Reference 101 errors), bank-ready document formatting, and ongoing administrative support for founders who value careful execution and no IRS phone wait times.
What information do I need to apply?
You'll need the legal name and address of the entity, the responsible party's name and Social Security Number or ITIN, and a few details about why you're requesting the EIN. Most applicants finish in under ten minutes.
