Terms and Conditions
1. Introduction
Welcome to einfilingtax.com (the “Website”), a service provided by Simple E-Tax Filing, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the Website and the services offered therein, specifically the preparation and submission of Employer Identification Number (EIN) applications (Form SS-4) to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). By accessing or using our Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not use our Website or services.
2. Our Service
- a. Application Preparation: We assist in the preparation of the Form SS-4 application based on the information you provide. Our service is a non-governmental, private fee-based service. We are not affiliated with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or any other governmental agency.
- b. Submission: Upon completion and payment, we will review your application for completeness and transmit it to the IRS for processing. We strive to submit applications within 24 hours during business days, but processing times are subject to various factors and cannot be guaranteed.
- c. Pricing: Our service includes the preparation, review, and submission of the Form SS-4 application. The fee for our service is clearly stated on the Website and is subject to change. This fee is for our preparatory service only and does not include any governmental filing fees, as the IRS does not charge a fee for the EIN application.
- d. Processing: While we aim for prompt processing, the final issuance of the EIN is solely determined by the IRS. Processing times can vary from minutes to several weeks, depending on IRS volume and application complexity. We are not liable for delays caused by the IRS.
3. Your Responsibilities
- a. Accuracy of Information: You are solely responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and truthfulness of all information provided to us for the EIN application. Submitting false or misleading information to the IRS may result in legal penalties. We rely entirely on the information you submit.
- b. Legal Authorization: By using our service, you represent and warrant that you are legally authorized to act on behalf of the entity or individual for whom the EIN application is being submitted.
- c. Tax and Legal Advice: We are not a law firm or an accounting firm, and we do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice. Our service is limited to the clerical and administrative preparation and submission of the Form SS-4 application. For tax or legal guidance, you must consult with a qualified professional.
4. Fees and Refunds
- a. Service Fee: All fees are clearly stated prior to submission. Payment must be made in full before the application is processed and submitted to the IRS.
- b. Refund Policy: Due to the nature of our service, which involves immediate administrative work and submission efforts upon payment, all fees are non-refundable once the payment process is complete and the application has been submitted to or is actively being processed for submission to the IRS. We may, at our sole discretion, offer a full or partial refund if an application is rejected due to an error directly attributable to our staff, provided the applicant cooperates fully in attempting a resubmission.
