Formation & Tax ID

U.S. LLC, EIN & SS-4 Coordination

Coordination support for U.S. LLC launch steps, EIN/SS-4 preparation, founder information checklists, registered agent workflows, and bank-readiness documentation. Legalize coordinates — it does not replace attorneys, CPAs, or government agencies.

For complex or regulated launches, start with MSB readiness, AML/KYC framework, or bank-readiness review.

Tax ID

EIN / SS-4 coordination

Domestic EIN

IRS SS-4 preparation and EIN submission coordination for U.S. entities with a responsible party who has a U.S. SSN. Standard EIN carries no government fee.

Non-U.S. SS-4 / EIN

EIN application coordination for foreign-owned entities without a U.S. SSN. Mailing, notarisation, and CPA verification costs are separate third-party fees.

Checklist

Founder information checklist

Before LLC filing or EIN/SS-4 submission, founders typically need the following organized. Legalize coordinates collection and workflow — not legal or tax determinations.

  • •Founder legal name, residency, and ownership percentage
  • •Proposed LLC name and principal business activity
  • •U.S. business address and registered agent details
  • •Responsible party information for SS-4 (SSN or foreign path)
  • •Operating agreement draft or attorney review status
  • •Business model summary for bank-readiness narrative
  • •Compliance baseline notes for higher-scrutiny industries
  • •Third-party professional contacts (attorney, CPA) if already engaged
Banking

Bank-readiness documents

Formation pack

Articles of organization, EIN confirmation letter, operating agreement, and registered agent proof organized for bank or partner review.

KYC documentation

Founder identity and ownership documentation prepared to common bank KYC standards. Banks make their own approval decisions.

Compliance narrative

Business model summary, compliance baseline notes, and partner-readiness checklist for higher-scrutiny launches.

Fees

Third-party fees and professional support

C2C coordination fees cover workflow management, documentation preparation, and professional introductions. The following are always separate third-party costs:

  • •State filing fees and registered agent fees
  • •Attorney drafting, review, and legal opinion fees
  • •CPA verification, tax advice, and notarisation costs
  • •IRS, FinCEN, and other government agency fees

Independent attorneys, CPAs, registered agents, and banks remain separate from Legalize. View full pricing →

Boundaries

No guarantees / boundaries
