The best place to look your employer's EIN (Employer Identification Number) or Tax ID is in Box b of your W-2 form. Look for a 9-digit number with a dash separating the second and third digit (NN-NNNNNNN). It's usually right above your employer's name or below their address.

The Federal ID Number (Payer's TIN) for the payer on the Form 1099-R is 9 digits in the format 12-3456789.  If the Form 1099-R that you received does not have the 9 digit Federal ID Number then contact the payer to get a corrected Form 1099-R.
