Getting social security first time, what is EIN number for social security administration?

You don't need the EIN. If TurboTax is asking you for the EIN you are entering your Form SSA-1099 in the wrong place. The screen where you enter your SSA-1099 does not require an EIN. Enter it under Federal Taxes > Wages & Income > Retirement Plans and Social Security > Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099).
