TAXMAN Posted August 3, 2018 Report Posted August 3, 2018 Is there any work around for a reject due to ein being issued in current year but being used on 2017 w-2? Quote
Lee B Posted August 3, 2018 Report Posted August 3, 2018 Back in April, my work around was to use the prior years EIN. It was a very large company which had multiple EINs. If you are dealing with a smaller entity, you will probably have to paper file Note: This topic was discussed about a month ago. Quote
Abby Normal Posted August 4, 2018 Report Posted August 4, 2018 Do you have the EIN letter? Are you sure the name is entered correctly? If the EIN simply isn't in the IRS database, you won't be able to efile. You could pull a transcript to see if the W2 is posted, then use the EIN and name listed. Quote
