EIN

[mikekleemann]

If I created a Sole Proprietorship using a fictitious business name and EIN, do I need to file two different tax returns? One for my personal SS# and one for the EIN#?

[ColeenD3]

No, not if they are in reality the same business. Choose one or the other. Most likely, unless you have employees, you do not need an LLC.

I received unemployment from the PUA due to Covid under my personal Social Security number. I also made money under my EIN. Do I need to file separate tax returns or is there a way to combine the incomes?

If your business is self employment or sole proprietor or a Single Member LLC it is a disregarded entity and you file it on Schedule C in your personal tax return.  You can have a EIN for it.  

If you have a Single Member LLC that is a S Corp you need to file a separate 1120S business return for it.  

You can enter Schedule C Income into Online Deluxe or Premier but if you have any expenses you will have to upgrade to the Self Employed version or use any of the Desktop CD/Download programs.

I only earned unemployment from PUA under my personal SS#. But I also earned money under my EIN after the PUA ended. Do I need to file two different taxes? One under the personal SS# which is just the PUA income, and another under the EIN?

Did you read the answers above?  You keep repeating the same question.  I'll assume you are not an S Corp.  

Yes you file all your income, both of them, on your personal tax return using your ssn.  You will enter your EIN on Schedule C .  It is included in your personal return.
