joanmcq Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 So far two of my 3 clients with household employees have rejected by the IRS. I have filed all three successfully in the past. The reject code says the employer EIN must match what’s in the IRS database. Has anyone else had this problem and what did you do about it? Am I forgetting a box somewhere? Is the IRS database full of cockroaches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Normal Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 The IRS's databases of names, EINs and year end dates, appear to be missing tons of data, this year. I had to do some finagling to get a 7004 to go through, after getting a 'year end date does not match' error on the reject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course with the current backlog . . . . . . ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanmcq Posted March 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 ok, I finally got the Letter 147C from the IRS and guess what! She filed for an EIN for an SMLLC she started years & years ago. So the EIN she filed to be a household employer is ??? I guess she never closed down the SMLLC? What should I do with the return? File with the old EIN for the SMLLC? Have her husband get one for his own care? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanmcq Posted March 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 More information: the EIN she used last year & this year is the one from her LLC. Since it was applied for under XYZ, LLC it failed the name match this year. Husband is in the hospital. Does anyone have an idea what I should do?
