Re: Problems setting up EIN and trade name for team
I'm not familiar with Maryland, but in Wisconsin, not for profit entities have to register with the Secretary of State. The SS4 you filed was to get an Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the Internal Revenue Service(IRS). One is a State organization, the other is Federal. We're also required to file a short annual report with the Secretary of State - with a $10 filing fee each time we do.
One caution, if the first four characters of the name you put on your bank account don't match the first four characters of the name assigned to the EIN the IRS assigned you, they will eventually start asking questions...
