GraceNY Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Taxpayer received a letter from NY state requesting additional information for "XYZ, LLC." Taxpayer has not set up an LLC or any other business. I went online to NY's Department of State and I did see this entity was established. We took care of what we needed to do for NY. Is there any way we can find out if a EIN was issued for this fraudulent business? Taxpayer did not receive any IRS communication. Do you know if IRS still mails an EIN letter even if the person printed the letter online? I'm thinking we pursue identity theft steps with IRS, etc. And, have taxpayer request a PIN for the 2023 tax return filing. Is there any other steps we should take? Thanks in advance for your input.

Max W Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 I would first contact the NYS DOR fraud division and report this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
