The company SBAUSTIN LLC went bankrupt and opened TV &VV LLC, and paid me through the new company. It was the same employers, just a new company name. I ONLY received a w-2 for SBAustin, not TV & VV, and I only have an Employer ID number for SBAustin, not TV & VV LLC
While filling out form 4852, the section for EIN (Employer Identification Number) only needs to be completed if it is known. If you don't have it you can leave this blank.
For more information regarding Form 4852, Substitute W2 please visit the FAQ and the IRS link below:

For the UK pension payer there is no Employer ID and a blank column 6 for Payer's TIN on Form 4852 was accepted by Turbo tax in previous years, but for year 2021 it is being treated as an error. Putting 99-99999 etc does not help as TT still treats it as an error.
The form says 'payer's TIN (if known)'. So a blank space should be acceptable as in previous years?
What to do?
