BrewOne Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 I have a 1041 ready to transmit but seem to recall getting a reject once with a brand new EIN. Anyone know how long it takes after you apply online for the EIN to be able to use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelmars Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Just try, if rejected, try again in a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewOne Posted March 2 Author Report Share Posted March 2 Thanks. I hate getting reject notifications, lol. I think last time I did this it was about 3 business days--just tried it (after 24 hours) and saw red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexTaxToo Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 A recent TAS blog post said: https://www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/news/tax-tips/employer-identification-numbers/2024/02/ Quote However, it will take up to two weeks before your EIN becomes part of the IRS’s permanent records. You must wait until this occurs before you can: File an electronic return Make an electronic payment Pass an IRS Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) matching program 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewOne Posted March 15 Author Report Share Posted March 15 update: looks like an accurate estimate; it took two weeks before it was accepted for e-filing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
