My sister and I just applied for a business license today as a partnership. I was told to apply for a new EIN which I did, but there was only space for my information, and not both of ours. I was given a EIN number. Do we need 2?? It says I am fully responsible, not both of us. Would love an explanation if you can!! Thanks in advance. I love SCORE!

If you filled out the application correctly, you are just the person they will look for.

If you have a real partnership agreement, you are both jointly and severally liable for the partnership's taxes. Mainly this will matter if you hire employees or your state has a partnership level tax.
