I tried claiming the LLC tax credit (the only one I am able to claim) without an EIN and TurboTax isn't letting me e-file without an EIN. I get the message:
| 1098-T Wks (University of Galway): Filer's federal ID is invalid for Electronic Filing. You must enter a valid federal identification number. |
This seems to be an issue with a value that the software expects, not a requirement that the IRS has. If it were $100 it would be one thing but for $2,000, I'd rather not leaver the money I'm eligible for on the table.
