Filling out an onboarding form for a potential new client and there’s a question that asks for our “Tax ID Type (TIN, SSN or ITIN)” which is making me lose my mind. Of course what they actually meant was “Tax ID Type (EIN, SSN OR ITIN)”—bc TIN doesn’t refer to a specific type of tax ID, it’s a general/umbrella term that is literally synonymous with the term “Tax ID.” EIN, SSN, and ITIN are the three types of TIN one can have. This company is extremely extremely well known and considered quite reputable…..it’s nuts how many times I’ve seen these sorts of careless errors on official forms from high-status businesses/organizations like this. None of them give a shit
