I'm a foreign-owned single member US LLC and I opened my LLC 9 months ago. It still has no activity. I didn't file the BE-13 within 45 days of opening the LLC. Should I file it now? And what about BE-12?

Are total assets required to be filled in on the 1120+5472? Also, do we need to sign pro-forma 1120? How is this field needs to be filled? Do we need to just type our full name as a signature, or do we need to insert an actual signature? Do we tick the Yes on the right, or can we just leave it blank, or check No? Is the amount paid to form the LLC count as contributions?

Here is step-by-step guide on how to get your EIN number in 4 business days. Let's start. First, make an account on efax (link: https://ww2.efax.com/uk/ ), this is online faxing service and you get FREE 14-day trial. For fax number select country in US where your LLC is registered. You will need to fax 2 documents: -Articles of Organization (you get this document when you create an LLC) -Form SS-4 ( Step-by-step video on how to fill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaZhnVA-lQ0 ) *Make sure that on SS-4 you put down a fax number from which you're sending documents. Second, fax upper documents to this name and fax number: NAME: Internal Revenue Service Attn: EIN Operation Cincinnati, OH 45999 FAX NUMBER: 18556416935 (fax number for business registered inside of US) Fax documents to upper fax number twice in case of IRS losing original fax. Third, after 4 business days (if you don't want to wait for weeks) call IRS at +1 800 829 4933: -press 1 for english language -press 1 for EIN help -press 3 or 4 (whichever states getting info about your EIN process) And now wait for them to answer. Be prepared to wait for hour and a half for them to accept you on the line. Have Form SS-4 and Certificate of Organization by your side, because they will want to check some details about your LLC. Tell them, you filled for EIN number on *DATE OF FAXING* and would like to know if they got it. After phone call they should send you EIN number to fax number from which you faxed documents to them. James Baker explained the process perfectly in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQoEnCHvVTo Fourth, now you can deactivate your efax account, the IRS will not need it anymore. That's it. Hope this helped.

I have heard that people who apply for an EIN via fax often wait a long time. How should those without an ITIN/SSN proceed?

Since Wise have halted the opening of US Dollar accounts, what have everyone been doing to get US Dollar accounts (for non-US residents)? Any way around this with Wise?
