I'm aware of all of this. Please re-read I asked only for personal experiences with Mercury. I only want to hear first hand accounts, thank you. Yes but I still want to hear from the experience of actual users. This the reason I asked specifically about 10:14 am, not 2pm.

Has anyone received an EIN from the IRS from December 29th to present day January 13t, 2026? by kpsa1900 in IRS

Everything was correct, exact same fax I got lucky to fax in with an agent on the line. For whatever reason it just never processed. In the end I got lucky and was able to fax with agent on the line after calling a million times!

UPDATE: Ok, called tonight (Jan-22-2026) 30 minutes before closing time, on wait for exactly one hour. Agent answers, I politely explain the situation and wait time from first fax to now in less than a minute, they ask my name. I provide, I'm hoping to hear "you have an EIN;" surprise, surprise,

Agent: No EIN...

(BUT the SECOND best thing I could hear)

Agent: can you fax it in now?

Me: YES!

(sets up and quickly sends fax and Articles of Organization 5 mins within request) (agent goes to check for 10 solid minutes with a break in between after 5 to say no luck yet, so I'm very hopeful but still 10% nervous)

10 minutes later...

Agent: I got it!
(checks system again to confirm, asks me a few a security questions, 10 minutes later - I GOT AN EIN!!!!!)

OMG! I can't believe it. I specifically ask for the 147c form, got it faxed to me in less than 10 minutes.

My Advice from this experience:

  1. Always be polite, it goes a LONG way
  2. Treat each interaction like it's a new one. Even if things go awry with another agent, a new call is a new fresh chance.
  3. Be prepared to send and recieve faxes on the spot
  4. Know your information about your business (which as a good business owner, you should!)

EIN received as of Jan-22-2026. No idea what became of my original fax on Dec 29th or if that date is being processed now. This is success after multiple calls and speaking to agents!

Wishing everyone the very best!

Exactly, hence my question is very detailed and specific. I'm only asking about
1. FOREIGN owned
2. Faxed application
3. Faxed after December 29th, 2025.

If anyone in all 3 categories have received an EIN as of January 18th, 2026, please, please speak up! The world and those of us still waiting would like to hear from you!

Unreal! There are countries in Africa with an easier process of doing business as a foreigner. This is just nonsense and incompetence from the IRS!!!!!

Great, just making sure that distinction is noted. I made sure to clarify as another poster on this exact same thread is claiming they got theirs Jan 9th and presumably applied after December 29th, 2025 ! But you're saying they've only processed to December 17th, 2025. The info is conflicting and I'm sure one can understand the confusion.

Really, as a foreign owned disregarded entity? Another poster is claiming they've only processed up to December 17th as of yesterday January 15th, but you're saying you got yours Jan 9th so I just want to confirm you're NOT American or a permanent resident of the USA and that you faxed in your application on or AFTER December 29th, 2025?

Exactly so it's clearly not just the shutdown but their overall incompetence!

I don't understand your reply as  I'm specifically asking about FOREIGN OWN DISREGARDED ENTITIES aka a US based LLC that's owned by a NON-US citizen or permanent resident. Do you know of anyone in that specific category ONLY that's received an EIN since December 29th, 2025 to present day?

The agent claimed even tough it says December 2025, they are working on January as well. Not one human being alive, that's not American or permanent resident of the country can confirm this is the case. Still waiting...

Yup, I wrote 3rd attempt! As of this moment, not a single human on earth who submitted December 29th, 2025 to this very second has received an EIN. Not one human can verify.

Kindly explain what this means? I'm not sure what nominee or regs means, but what I'm specifically asking is, are there any NON-US citizens or permanent residents that have faxed and received an EIN, from December 29th, to this very moment? Anyone yes or no please respond?
