Newly-issued US tax ID number not verifying

If the name of your US-based business was recently updated with the IRS (e.g. within the last 3 months), or if you are a new business registering for the first time, the IRS might not have updated their database with your new details yet. This can take the IRS 3-4 weeks on average.If your legal name and tax ID on file match the info on your SS-4 confirmation letter (for new TINs issued within the last ~3 months) and it is unable to be verified with IRS records, upload a copy of your letter in your account. You can also contact Support for further assistance.
