I used an old EIN # not the last one issued on our Small business taxes, 1099's the filing form for 1099's, the extension to file and the K-1's submitted with the partner's taxes. It is consistently the wrong number used for 2017 taxes. Do I have to go in and file the taxes again and amend the returns with the latest number that was filed or can I leave it alone and file it for 2018. We are required to pay estimated self employment tax, but no business taxes. We are an LLC with a dba.
You have a small mess that needs to be cleaned up. You may want to seek professional help in doing so.
The technically correct response is that you need to file all the returns using the correct EIN and these are all late. These returns should mirror what you have done previously using the incorrect EIN.
Then you need to amend all the returns filed that used the incorrect EIN to show zero on everything.
You will most likely receive late filing notices and penalties. Seeking professional help here may provide some assistance in addressing the late filing penalties and the correspondence with the IRS on this matter.
If would be helpful to understand why you have two EIN's and this may change my response.
Since you are responding from the TT Business software I assume that this is a multi-member LLC.
It is a general partnership LLC between my husband and my son When our accountant quit I was handed a haphazard mess to sort out this January. The EIN# I was given was the one I filed everything with. I was sorting out the files and found an EIN with the date that is after the one I used. It hasn't been used on any documents or filings.
Unfortunate set of circumstances. My recommendation is to meet with a tax professional. Bring all details you have for this entity; past tax returns, IRS EIN correspondence, etc. The tax professional most likely will want to get a power of attorney so this individual can speak directly and / or correspond directly with the IRS.
