Populate signed EIN

okay so in this video i want to cover some public options that you might have if you're trying to find a company's ein right so the ein or employer identification number it's a business tax id number that's assigned to entities and this is issued by the irs it's assigned to both u.s entities and uh foreign entities if they need or want one as well now there's currently no public database for all eins right so it's for the most part private information the irs doesn't have a portal or a website where you can just search for an en ein online but in some cases you can find eins on other databases if they are made public but it's limited as certain types of entities so we've got a list here go through this and maybe you can use one of these avenues to try to find an ein so the first one is sec registered and publicly traded companies the ein is disclosed on the front of the 10k right and you can also find it on 10 qs so if you go to the sec edgar database or any publicly traded company they're going to post uh their annual and quarterly reports on their website you'll see it right on there on page one right they'll have their ein that's assigned to the entity the second one is if you're an employee of a company and you're trying to find the din uh you can just look at the w-2 right so w-2s are furnished to employees if they work for the company during the year and earn income have payroll taxes taken out and on the w-2 you'll find the ein assigned to uh that company so that's that's one way to find the ein if you're looking for it for your uh your employer uh the next on the list is non-profit organizations so nonprofits are tax-exempt entities under uh section 501 c3 of the internal revenue code and these entities are generally required to publish their eim in a couple of places so the first is um they want to have it on their website and and this is because on their website they also want to indicate what type of public charity they are so you have name of the charity address ein and then it's very often attached to any kind of confirmation receipt if you have a donor that's contributing cash or other types of property and that's because the donor is going to want to take a charitable tax deduction for their contribution and as part of their record keeping they're supposed to have this information on file in case the irs ever asked the other thing with tax exempt entities is they generally are required to publish their tax return so the form 990 990s are for operating uh charitable organizations and then you have 990 pfs for uh private foundations they also generally publish that data...
