Its the IRS... nothing is IMPOSSIBLE.
I have not received a single notice of invalid EIN. As stated, I file 1096 annually. I receive 1099 NEC's from my customers annually. Report all income on Sch. C and write off all NEC labor as an expense on Sch. C.
You would think they would send something to me right? I have to include my SS# along with my EIN on form 1096 when I file.
I will add, my business is a single owner LLC, therefore I file as a Sole Proprietorship. I don't recall having to enter my EIN on Sch. C anywhere... due to being a single owner LLC.
On hold now with the "Business EIN" division [phone number removed].
I just don't understand how they could LOSE my EIN after consistent compliance for so many years... without some sort of notification by mail.
