I'm always going to go with the answer from the organization itself

 

 the instructions all sound like you can't go back and get a sole proprietor EIN if you already have one.

 

The organization itself created the Instructions.  You merely talked to an employee that may or may not know what they are talking about.

 

If you as an Individual/Sole Proprietor don't have an EIN, you certainly can get one.  The fact that you have an LLC that has an  EIN has no effect on YOU getting one for yourself.
