Do you need a new North Carolina tax ID for a company you have just started? Are you running a new non-profit, but do not have a North Carolina tax ID so you can get your tax-free status sorted out?
If so, there are a couple of ways you can sort out your tax ID. One is free, but can be quite complicated and very time-consuming. The other one costs a small fee, but just takes seconds to set up.
Getting a North Carolina tax ID via the state -- You can apply for a tax ID via the state's official website. While the process is free, it can be quite complicated to figure out what they need, how to complete the application form online and how to submit it.
These are reasons why a number of people avoid using the state's website, and instead go to a service that can help.
Applying for your North Carolina tax ID via a service -- It is possible to apply for the ID via the website of a service set up to help.
All they need you to provide them with is your name, address and telephone number, the type of business you have started, whether you are offering goods and services and information about the business owner and manager.
Once you have all this information at hand, you can get online, find one of these services and answer the questions on their short application form. You will then pay a nominal fee, and the website will immediately send your North Carolina tax ID application to the state of North Carolina.
The state will process the application, and your tax ID number will be sent to you via email and then via a physical letter. The entire process takes just a few days to complete.
