Only obtain your EIN through the IRS website.
A client just reached out to me and said that she received a request to get her Employer Identification Number (EIN) by text link. Luckily, she stopped and thought about it and realized that NO ONE legitimate is going to reach out about obtaining an EIN by text. Your EIN is the unique identification number with the IRS for your business, essentially like its social security number. You will use your own social security number to obtain it. Only obtain your EIN using the secure IRS portal at https://sa.www4.irs.gov/applyein/.
