What do you mean by "my Federal ID number?" Are you saying you don't know what your own SSN or EIN is?

Or are you trying to report a W-2, 1099, etc. and don't know the Payer's Tax ID number/EIN?

In other words, we don't know what you're doing unless you elaborate. You should describe your issue more fully, and someone may be able to further comment. This is a public Internet forum, however, so don't post any personal info.

@8c41fdf64a2d Do you mean the EIN (there is nothing called an EID) ? That would be the employer's identification number on a W-2, or it could be a number on some other kinds of tax documents. We do not know what you are looking for. If you are trying to get to a W-2, you need more than just an EIN. What are you trying to do?
