Hello everyone, I saw a few freelancers on the Fiverr website. People here almost guarantee that they will provide the EIN number and letter within 24, 48 hours. And there were hundreds of confirmed customers reviews confirming this Is such a fast process possible?

If you have your LLC you now need to open bank accounts (the first two are free so open both!). I'm going to share some links below to what I think are the best options. They are my affiliate links and I'll address them separately so you can understand the benefits. When applying, be honest but always emphasize more on how you will help your US clients. Relay financial - I have a great relationship with relayfi and they have told me that applicants that use this link have a greater likelihood of being approved. I use relay for my business and it has been great.the account is free to open. https://app.relayfi.com/register?referralcode=jimbaker Mercury bank - this is another great option. Again focus on how you are serving clients in the US. This link should give you bonuses once you are approved. The account is free to open. https://mercury.com/partner/jamesbakercpa Wise - this is not a bank but is a useful way to get paid and pay other people sign up with my link to get free transfers up to $500.. the account is free to open but there are small fees to open different currency accounts https://wise.com/invite/ahpc/jamesb2812 Stripe - if you are selling anything I would first try stripe.com for payment processing. I don't have a special link for them. Let me know if there are other accounts you may be interested in, how this goes for you and which you prefer!

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?

Hello Guys, I am an Indian planning to start a Florida LLC for my counselling business. I provide mental health counselling services virtually via video call. Coming to taxes, would I owe any taxes to the USA, or could I pay them in India? Once I open my bank account, what payment gateway is best for my case, & how do I transfer this money to my home country? Should I just create an LLC, get a business bank account and start receiving money and worry about taxes later when I plan to withdraw money from my business bank account?
