For example if you got married recently, try using your maiden name instead.</LI><LI>Don’t include any commas, periods, or apostrophes within the business name in the Tax Form section of your Dashboard - the IRS website doesn’t allow for these characters.</LI><LI>Make sure&nbsp;that you’re entering information that has been issued by a federal agency such as the IRS, and not by a state agency.</LI></OL> Sun, 17 Mar 2024 22:25:34 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Staff-Payroll/My-EIN-keeps-getting-denied-for-approval-why/m-p/716945#M1055 JK_Fiber_Art 2024-03-17T22:25:34Z
