I can't find an international school's federal id # anywhere. I have gone to IRS, student loan .gov. Is this something that turbo tax is requesting or the IRS?

This is something that the IRS requires because the school must be an eligible institution for the education credits.

I know you have said you tried the IRS, but here is a link to where I find the qualifying schools: https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/earned-income-tax-credit/eligible-educational-ins...
