Hello Kimberly,

    No sweat - don't stress. Actually, I think you misread; it's not a
    "tax ID" that's needed, but copies of the paper certificate issued
    to your business by the taxing jurisdiction for whom you collect
    sales tax. In my state it's a "sales tax registration certificate."
    Other states probably use some other term(s). 

    The verification of your business does refer to the potential need
    for a loan. In that case the bank will want evidence of both an
    honest person as well as the verification of past income. Your copy
    of the IRS Income Tax Schedule C should provide that. 

    I actually do have a Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN),
    even though I have no employees other than myself. My state
    incorporates it in their sales tax report form - I didn't ask why.
    Probably another example of cross-referencing income between
    governments. My accountant hasn't been concerned by this. 

    Judy in Kansas Gee. Maybe it's Big Brother and not Santa who is
    watching. (Shades of "1984"!)
