Posted by Craig in LA on February 08, 2004 at 10:01 AM In Reply to: EIN application.... posted by Ward-CA- on February 06, 2004 at 7:53 PM : : When filling out the IRS application to get an EIN for a trust, it asks for the grantor's SS#. Should the beneficiaries or the Trustee fill that out? If the answer is the Beneficiaries, what if there are multiple beneficiaries? If the answer is the Trustee, will the Trustee have any liability regarding the EIN? : ================== : JK, : We use the trustor's social and have suffered no untoward consequences. That's the correct procedure - leave the beneficiaries SSN's off the form as it will only confuse IRS. Nobody wants IRS confused on your issue.
