Short answer
EIN timing is controlled by the IRS. WYOM organizes and runs the request workflow for non-US founders, while the IRS controls final processing speed.
Why timing varies
Non-US founder EIN requests often use a different path than a domestic online EIN application. IRS workload, routing, data consistency, and communication method can affect timing.
The safest public answer is not a promise. The correct answer is that WYOM organizes and runs promptly, while IRS processing determines final timing.
What can reduce avoidable delay
- Consistent company name and formation details.
- Accurate responsible party information.
- Correct non-US founder handling.
- One organized document workflow instead of scattered submissions.
What WYOM cannot control
- IRS workload.
- Government processing delays.
- Requests for additional information.
- Third-party provider review after the EIN is issued.
