For a richer understanding of corporations, vs LLCs, vs sole proprietorships, I highly recommend you read The Rich Dad, Poor Dad Series Available at Amazon.com and try the used books section. I got the entire collection for less than $100 - lots of people out there who buy these books and NEVER move on them, so they go back on the market, and they're very affordable!

 

   The employer identification number or EIN, also often called the federal tax identification number, is the number used by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to identify a business. It is basically a Social Security Number for a business, and it must be included on all tax filings a business makes.

If you operated your business as a sole proprietorship or general partnership, your EIN was your Social Security Number. When you incorporate or form a limited liability company (LLC), you must apply to receive a new number from the IRS.

In order to obtain an EIN, Form SS-4 must be completed and filed with the IRS. Certain states also require corporations and LLCs to obtain a state tax identification number. To learn if your state requires this, you should contact your state taxation authority.
