Is your business a corporation? A partnership? An LLC or LLP? A dba? Is it incorporated in some other state?\n\nWith so little information, I have to send you to the Business Portal: http://business.illinois.gov/

Establish an Employer Identification Number (EIN) free from the IRS--check with your local Employment Security Office for information, or online.\n\nThen your business has it's own identifying number, not necessarily tied to your Social Security number which will be flagged by the bankruptcy.\n\nGood luck!

Here ya go...\n\nAn invoice, for it to be acceptable to the IRS needs the following\n\n1 Vendors Name and DBA (doing business as or your business name.\n\n2 Your federal ID number. If you don't have this, ask your publisher if they need it for their 1099's and offer it then but don't write it on the invoice if you don't feel secure with that.\n\n3 Address of businss\n\n4 Phone numbers\n\n5 Service renedered. Format the invoice to appear like a receipt if you are wondering how it should look.\n\n6 Cost of service\n\n7 Date of service\n\nThere are invoice blanks at Stapels that would help you a lot and there are online invoices too. Here is a link to one. http://www.businessownersideacafe.com/bizforms/expense2.html?IC=6b6cc89f8fe5e4f16ef4d38ee4a5f985

Check with the Secretary of State. Usually, LLC's have to register their businesses.  Several states have this information online.

All partnerships, trusts, estates, not for profits and corporations need an EIN.  This is in order to be able to report and file taxes.  \n\nIf you mean why would a sole-proprietor want one, the answer is that while it doesn't give any tax advantage, it allows you to give vendors and customers a number OTHER than your Social Security Number as identification.  This keeps your SSN a little more private.  Also, having an EIN gives the appearance of a true business, as opposed to just working by yourself.

I would organize the business as an LLC to protect your family's assets.  Register with the state (check their site for details).  Apply for an EIN (Employer ID Number) also called a Tax ID number.  If you do it by phone it's faster than by mail or fax.  Find out if you need a local or county business license.  I only needed a dba (doing business as) form to be filed in my county (but I operate my business from my home).  Then, apply for a Sales Tax ID number as you'll have to file regularly, usually quarterly, and notify the state of your sales tax collected.\n\nTo get a local business checking account, you need all of those forms along with your Driver's License and at least one other form of ID.  Many banks offer free business checking for small businesses.\n\nGood luck.  It's a lot of work, but well worth it.

The rules and procedures depend on the state. I suggest you go to your state's Secretary of State website. They would have a page on how to start a business in the state, then look for the link on how to start and register a partnership in the state. Without knowing the actual state, we will not be able to point you to the right direction.

Business registration - Businesses, even the smallest home-based operations, are required to register with either their city or county. Check with your city or county office the procedures in filing for business registration.\n\nDBA - Registering your fictitious business name is important for a number of reasons. Banks look for proof that you have properly registered the name when opening a business account. An even more important consideration is that you won't be able to enforce any contract that you sign under an unregistered name. An unregistered business name also leaves that name open for use by other businesses, even your competitors, which may jeopardize your business.\n\nSellers permit if you are receiving wholesale goods -- wholesalers ask for this\n\nTax ID or EIN - sole proprietors with no employees are not required to get an EIN, and can instead use their Social Security numbers. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) web site at http://www.irs.ustreas.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=98350,00.html contains all the information you need about EIN and how to apply for an EIN electronically.\n\nI suggest you go to your local county and check with them the requirements for the type of business you are planning to start

You do NOT need any licensing or required education to prepare federal income taxes.  The IRS does not require any registration or tracking of tax preparers, even though paid preparers must sign all returns & provide their tax ID (which can be a SSN if you are self employed--or you can get a personal tax id # if you don't want to put your SSN on returns).  \n\nHOWEVER, there are penalties for certain types of errors/omissions made by a tax preparer (from the IRS).  So make sure you know what you are doing.\n\nAs far as Illinois, I cannot say.  Call your local H&R Block & ask them if state certification is required they would know.  My guess is that none is required.

Have you tried asking the company for their EIN?

You should start with the State's Licensing requirements first. You would need to file a Texas Tax Registration. If you want to use a fictitious name for your business, then you would have to file that on the County level. If you want a place where you can find these forms, you can go to http://www.businesslicenses.com/Licenses/TX/Collin/Allen-4808501924/.

I started at the SBA home page, at the bottom there was this link to the IRS site to apply for an EIN. This is the federal number, were you looking for another number?

It depends on what state you are in. Go to the Secretary of State website or your official state website -- they often have information on how to start a business and the permits and licenses required. Look up the department that issues permits and licenses and contact them.\n\nMost likely you will need:\n\n- zoning approval (for your signs, etc.)\n- liquors license\n- business name registration\n- fire department permit\n- building and contractors permit\n- public health operating license (as you will serve liquor)\n- sellers permit

Don't know what state you are in, but you can go directly to your State's Division of Corporations/State Records website and follow the links.\n\nIf you want to start and register a new business, best place to start is the Small Business Administration website at http://www.sba.gov - they have links to all the required documents and to the official state websites for registration.\n\ngood luck
