In some instances, having an EIN makes many processes easier. Please go on to read to learn points differentiating between an EIN and social security number.
EIN is needed for some cases as follow;
- If employees are going to be hired, if Keogh/solo 401 (k) are going to be opened, or while applying for bankruptcy protection.
- If one is on the process to buy an existing company or manage it as a sole proprietorship.
