I applied for delaware llc, said was consulting, gave business websites of mine from Australia
No reason given

 

[tomboy]

Guys, my EIN application was denied.



Line 7 in the form:
7a. Name of corresponding party:
My first and last name

7b. SSN, ITINm or EIN:
FOREIGN

What have I done wrong?

I checked here: How to Apply for EIN (for your LLC) without an SSN or ITIN | LLC University®

This is the right way to do it. They made a mistake. Mine shows foreigner and not foreign but I doubt it makes a difference.

If you are a non-US person who opens an LLC in USA, does the IRS share your personal info with the tax authorities in your home country?

 

[bronze]

They can but from reports it's a one way street, only the other countries report to uncle sam

Thanks @bronze. Though I think the "one way street" you are referring to applies to "banks" i.e. CRS. My understanding is that IRS is a completely different entity. Or am I misunderstanding something?

I didn't believe the irs did shit

I think this is a very controversial topic.
You can refer the thread below:

Do I understand that US financial institutions DO NOT report non-us person deposits in them?

US is the only country that has not signed CRS (common reporting standard) agreement. They collect info via FACTA, but they do not have a responsibility to share info on non-US person deposits in their financial institutions with the respective tax authorities of the non-US person country. Do I...

If you read the thread it seems that many people believe that its a "one way street", but user "Martin Everson" who does seem to provide links implies or states that it is not at all a "one way street" and this this is a big misconception.

I am non-US resident, alien.
In 4 December 2020 I applied for EIN via fax +1-304-707-9471
more than 45 days passed. I called to IRS and asked them about status of my EIN application.
They said we see in our system NOTHING.
Send fax again. I sent fax to another number 855-215-1627
what I can to do to speed up this process?
How I can track status of my application?

You can’t check the status neither speed up the process. I got my EIN in 4 months, while for my other companies I am still waiting after almost 5 from incorporation.

1.But did I use correct fax numbers
+1-304-707-9471 and 855-215-1627 ?
2. If I incorporated LLC in December 2020, then I should prepare 5472 form in April 2021?
3. Can I prepare 5472 form without having EIN ?

1- No, the correct one is: 1-855-641-6935.
2- Yes.
3- No, you can request an extension of the deadline, talk to to your CPA and they will help you do it.

1-855-641-6935 hmm
Very strange but in ss-4 Instructions for Form SS-4 (12/2019) | Internal Revenue Service
form instruction
On IRS website says
"If you have a principal place of
business, office or agency, or
legal residence in the case of an
individual, located in:
File or fax to:
One of the 50 states or the District
of Columbia" fax to 1-855-641-6935
But I am not from USA, have not legal residence there..
I confused. Do I send the same Ss-4 form to fax 855-641-6935 too?

You are getting an EIN for an LLC which is formed and it has its residence in one of the 50 states, is not an EIN for an entity or person that is outside of the US. Also, keep in mind that sending the fax multiple times can make your EIN to take even more time to be issued.

All correct. Anyway, after some months w/o getting noticed by IRS, I resent the fax and don’t think I rised any issue in IRS just for faxing them again.

why that?

My god I called to IRS several times and 4 operators said to me that I have to send fax to +1-304-707-9471 or 855-215-1627.
How is it possible that IRS can not give correct answer
Thanks guys.

Yes I read about it in instruction of 5472 form
"A foreign-owned U.S. DE required to file Form 5472 can request an extension of time to file by filing Form 7004. The DE must file Form 7004 by the regular due date of the return. Because the Form 5472 of a DE must be attached to a pro forma Form 1120, the code for Form 1120 should be entered on Form 7004, Part I, line 1. “Foreign-owned U.S. DE” should be written across the top of Form 7004...

You can fax it to both numbers, it does not matter to which number you fax it, the outcome will be the same. You should stop calling and just wait!

Without an EIN, I cannot open a bank account or fill out any form.
Little is left until April 15th.
