PTO Today

I just applied for our PTO's EIN number this morning by phone. I just read another post this evening stating that you do not need to put an individual's Social Security number on the form. The person who helped me by phone stated that because I was the president I had to put my SS #. I felt uncomfortable doing this, but did so anyway.........................

Why don't I listen to my first instinct? Should I call back and try to have it removed??

So my question is on the form in row # 3 where it asks for executor/administrator name, as well as 7a (name of the principal officer owner etc).........should it be the principal of the campus or the president? Whose name should it be? I had my name placed there and the IRS guy acted like we had to notify them each year when we change officers. I do not ever recall having to do this for PTA so I've been a bit confused by this.

Thanks for the help!

Sorry, someone else applied for our EIN, so I don't know about what might be required. (You applied by calling the IRS, right? They already have your SSN, so I wouldn't worry to much.)

When you fill out your annual tax return (Form 990/990ez), you'll be listing your current officers; I don't think there's a separate requirement for notifying at election time.
