You are totally fine - your company can obtain a separate EIN number (important for things like employment taxes and excise taxes) but that does NOT make you a corporation for federal income tax purposes.  

 

To elect to be taxed as a corporation, you would have filed Form 8832, Entity Classification Election, or Form 2553, Election by a Small Business Corporation.
