Julie,
Thank You. I'm staying a sole proprietorship. The only thing is. The Ein Number I have right now is under my own personal name. Example Denise Tubbs. Now I finally came up with a name for my business. I want to use that. My own name was used for when I was selling things online etc. When I try and apply for another EIN it is telling me to call IRS reference number 101. When I look up that number it is saying cause I have a EIN already. So I will call the IRS instead.
Let us know what they say. I believe as a sole proprietor you can just do a DBA.... Denise Tubbs DBA Virtual Assistant NYC (or whatever your company name is). But I'm curious what the IRS says.
Yes, do let us know what they say; I'm heading down the same path (getting an EIN when I haven't yet decided on my biz name) so I'm curious as to what you'll find out!
My EIN is the same for all my companies. However, I asked my CPA why that was the case. She indicated that it is the way I have my companies structured. I am an LLC in one state and foreign LLC in another state with a D/B/A business passing through the foreign LLC. Whereby when I get paid for any business coaching services my clients write payments to the corporation not the D/B/A entity.
