Years ago I requested with the IRS a EIN number because my identity had been stolen and I was doing alot of freelancing. I also have used it in place of my SSI # at W-2 jobs were I did not feel comfortable providing it. I am concern that perhaps my wages from 2018 & 2017 were not reported to Social Security or IRS for proper amounts because I used this number instead of my SSI #. I was told by IRS originally it didnt matter because they were linked. I can't get a hold of anyone at IRS and I don't know if I should be alarmed and requesting W-2's with my SSI number for those tax years. I also tried to get into my IRS file and there is no reference about me creating this years ago. Any advice would be helpful.
