Help with Sales Tax

[Mblair]

Hello,

I'm operating as a Sole Proprietor and use my SSN when filing taxes.

I'm trying to apply for a Sales Tax Permit in Michigan and it says I need a Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN). If I get a FEIN number and apply under this, can I still use my SNN number to sell on platforms like Amazon and file my income taxes under my SNN?

Thank you in advance for the help. I'm overwhelmed.

Michael

Ok ... once you get the EIN for the Sch C business not only will that go on the Sch C when you file the return you  really should use it INSTEAD of your SS#  EVERYWHERE for security reasons .... why would you want to keep giving out your SS# if you have a safer alternative ... so GET the EIN ASAP.
