Owners of Single Proprietor LLCs may have received an error message that their Tax Form cannot be verified. This is a simple fix and is due to discrepancies in how your LLC is classified in our payment system and on your tax forms.
If you file taxes as an Single Proprietor LLC and...
- Use your EIN to file taxes, please include ONLY your business entity name on your tax forms - do not write your name.
- Use your SSN to file taxes, please include BOTH your name and your business entity name on your tax forms.
In addition, please note that:
- Only EIN and SSN numbers are validated.
- If special characters are included in your legal name, Tipalti strips these characters and leaves only the ones permitted by the IRS. If your name does not match the name associated with the TIN at the IRS, then TIN validation fails and you will be "unpayable".
