How do I obtain The payers EIN

The payer's EIN will be on the tax form you receive them, W2 or 1099. It could be called a Federal EIN or Federal ID number for example. It will be in the format XX-XXXXXXX.  If you are unable to locate it or it is unreadable you could try an online search or contact the payer to get the information.
