        "content": "You can get your EIN (Employer Identification Number) confirmation letter\u2014also known as CP 575 or EIN Assignment Notice\u2014and if needed, a replacement verification letter (Letter 147C) from the IRS using several official methods. Here\u2019s what to do depending on your situation:\n\n---\n\n## If You Just Applied for Your EIN\n\nWhen you apply for a new EIN using the IRS online EIN Assistant on IRS.gov:\n\n- Once your application is approved, **you are immediately given a confirmation notice (CP 575) on screen**, which you can **download, save, and print**. ([irs.gov](https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p1635.pdf?utm_source=openai))  \n- If you don\u2019t download it then, **you likely won\u2019t be able to retrieve it later** from the IRS online system. ([justanswer.com](https://www.justanswer.com/tax/vbbv7-estate-ein-number-letter-request.html?utm_source=openai))  \n\nSo, if you're currently applying, make sure you save that CP 575 PDF when it\u2019s presented.\n\n---\n\n## If You Already Have an EIN But Lost the Letter\n\nIf you\u2019ve already been assigned an EIN but don\u2019t have the CP 575 confirmation letter or it was lost, here\u2019s how to get an equivalent:\n\n### 1. Request Letter 147C (EIN Verification Letter)\n\n- Call the **IRS Business & Specialty Tax Line** at **1-800-829-4933**. ([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/how-to-request-an-ein-letter-from-the-irs-online/?utm_source=openai))  \n- Ask for **Letter 147C**. This official document includes your EIN, business name and address, and confirms your EIN was assigned, similar to CP 575. ([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/how-to-get-a-copy-of-your-ss-4-letter/?utm_source=openai))  \n- You may receive the letter by **fax during the same call**, or it can be mailed to your address of record (which may take 4\u20136 weeks if via mail) depending on your request. ([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/how-to-request-an-ein-letter-from-the-irs-online/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n### 2. Download via IRS Business Tax Account (BTA)\n\n- If your business is eligible and you have a **Business Tax Account (BTA)** with the IRS, you can download a **digital CP 575** from there. ([irs.gov](https://www.irs.gov/businesses/employer-identification-number?aff_sub2=creditstrong&utm_source=openai))  \n- This digital CP 575 is accepted just like the original notice or Letter 147C. ([content.govdelivery.com](https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USIRS/bulletins/41e5985?reqfrom=share&utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Other Options to Find Your EIN\n\nBefore making requests, you might already have your EIN somewhere else:\n\n- **Tax returns** you or your business have filed (e.g. Forms 941, 990, etc.), will list the EIN. ([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/how-can-i-verify-an-ein-number-online/?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Bank documents** \u2014 the bank you used to open your business account will have the EIN. ([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/where-is-the-fein-number-key-documents-to-check/?utm_source=openai))  \n- **State or local licensing agencies**, business licenses, or permits filed for your business. ([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/how-to-get-a-copy-of-your-ss-4-letter/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Steps You Should Take Now (Checklist)\n\n1. Log in to your **IRS Business Tax Account** and see if you can download your EIN confirmation (CP 575).  \n2. If you don\u2019t have it there, call the **IRS Business & Specialty Tax Line** at **1-800-829-4933** during their hours. Ask for **Letter 147C**.  \n3. When on the phone or applying online, have ready:\n   - Your legal business name\n   - Address used when applying for the EIN\n   - Social Security Number or TIN of the responsible party (if needed)\n   - EIN (if known)\n   - Your status as an authorized officer or owner\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me whether you still have any official documents with your EIN, whether you set up a Business Tax Account, or whether you applied online or by paper/fax, I can guide you to the fastest way to get the document you need."
