I needed to get a EIN for my company. I paid extra to get it in one day. They came back and needed a copy of my articles of incorporation. I faxed it to them and then got an email stating it would now take longer. I called them up to get a refund of the extra amount I paid, they declined and when I wanted to cancel the order they said I would get only have of what I paid. When I told them I should get a refund of the extra amount, they said no, because they had to still do the same work, when I asked them are they doing anymore work than the normal fee would be, they reply no. They are liars, and scammer. DO NOT USE THEM AT ALL. It has been 6 working day and still no EIN number and once again they have lied I was assured I would have it 6 working days NOPE NOT YET
Great. Fast. User Friendly.
In only one hour I was able to receive my new EIN and I am so excited. I can pursue my dream of owning my own business legally. Let us all Make Amaerica Great Again.
My call was answered in a timely manner. Everyone was so very nice and helpful to my business and myself. I had no trouble what so ever other than my name is spelled wrong.
I did not receive help, not even a blank form that I can pick up or order from my local social security office. Just a charge for $37.00 which I am having removed by my bank as a fraud charge.
I must confess that I thought that this process was complicated but the truth is that it has been extremely simple. Thanks to who ever design the web page system.
I tried another website, without success. This was the easiest and most expedient. The other website was also $100 more expensive. Glad it didn't go through.
They gave me my ein but ithought it cost to much that's why I would not recommend them only if the price was much less then I beleave all your customers will agree
It was okay to get my EIN but I didn't know that I could get it on the IRS website for free by filling out the forms myself. I thought this was the government website to fill out the form and didn't realize that you are a private company. I think it would be fair to advertise that your company can fill out the form and get the EIN for a fee but if you can do it yourself here is the web address of the IRS.
GovSimplified is NOT a government website and not a representative of the government. GovSimplified is a PRIVATE company.
There is NO fee for filing for a social security card when applying directly to the Social Security Administration. You can not order a new or replacement copy of a social security card online. Photo I.D. is required for a reason. You can not get a social security card without speaking to a representative in person.
The only thing GovSimplified sends you are copies of paperwork required for obtaining a social security card. GUESS WHAT?! You can get all of these same required papers at your social security office and they don't cost a thing. They are FREE. You're going to have to go there in person, regardless. Why pay for something that is entirely free. Unless you write at two words per minute, save your $29, $49, or $129 for something else. But, if wasting money turns you on-go for it!
GovSimplified targets people stuck on the lower end of the bell curve. Don't be one of them. Not that I believe any of these good reviews are legitimate, but, if you are satisfied with what you have paid for, you are clearly the laziest walking void on the planet.
Emily P.,
We aim for clarity, transparency and conciseness in the description of our company and the service we provide. We apologize if at the time of your visit to our site, our services were unclear to you. We appreciate your supplying this review as it offers us an opportunity to not only address your concerns but also better communicate our core values to our visitors. You are correct in asserting that we are not a government website nor are we a representative of the government. We are a private entity and are not affiliated with any government agency or the SSA. This disclosure appears on our landing page and within the footer of each subsequent page a visitor arrives to while navigating our site, including the application for service. We are a service company. We do not advertise to be associated with any government agency nor do we advertise the sale or generation of social security cards or the official SS5 form necessary in order to apply for a new or replacement card. You can obtain these forms for free from the SSA. We disclose this on our landing page as well. The SSA states they accept applications for social security cards either in person or by mail. The SSA requires proof of identity as well as several other things along with the SS5 form -- which they readily accept by mail -- offering qualifying individuals an opportunity to complete this process without having to appear in person. There are some occasions where an in person application is required. For those occasions where it is not, an applicant can submit their request by mail. We provide unique guided assistance for completing only the SSA outlined processes to ensure that all eligible clients are able to successfully submit a complete application by mail. This way our clients can rest assured knowing that their submissions will not be returned to them due to incompleteness or inaccuracy. We do not offer assistance for submitting in a manner not offered or accepted by the SSA. We do not offer online processing as the SSA does not offer or outline this as an option. Clients who wish to benefit from our unique guided assistance pay a service fee of $29, $49 or $129 depending on their needs. The fee is not for the card which is issued by the SSA or the form supplied. Our service also includes supplying all of the necessary mailing material to facilitate delivery of our clients’ submissions to their local office.
We are an online document preparation service. We were founded with the idea that people should be able to focus on what really matters. We are here to make sure that our clients are able to get what they need done quickly and efficiently and our number one goal is 100% customer satisfaction.
We regret that we were unable to provide this for you however we hope we were better able to explain those things that might have been previously unclear. If you have any additional concerns or suggestions for how we may have been able to better communicate that which we have explain herein please reach out to us.

You are fraud. You represent yourself as the IRS and charge a fee that did not have to be incurred. We are filing a complaint with the commissioner's office

I paid for immediate service but it still took 4 days which was no problem but you advertised 3 different options and I did not get what was advertised

We needed an EIN quickly for a short-term committee. The online application was clear and easy to use. When we called for help, the answers were sympathetic and helpful.
The turn around time on the application was very quick and the process in applying for an EIN was easy and straight forward. You made it easy to get my business started.
I really love this service. It is quick and simple. I am not really a computer person; I thought it will take a lot of time. I got just like that. Thank you so much!
His is a real blessing to me and any one else. I really love it. It saves time and less problems. I would be happy to tell the whole world how easy it is sincerely.
This has been a wonderful experience, I assumed that it would take weeks to get the EIN # and you folks gave it to me in just a few hours (probably would have been faster if I would have replied sooner), you get a GREAT BIG AT-A-BOY!
Thank you for your prompt and most needed documents for our church. Also, thanks for your professional service so I could receive the official information and specific instructions.
Truly Government Simplified. I made a mistake on the form and I called the help desk. The staff member was courteous, patient, and highly efficient. Great job. Thanks.
I believed I was on a Government website. When I got to the fees, I incorrectly assumed that there was an upcharge for expedited service as there is with Passports. I didn't realize that the Federal Government will issue a EIN (tax ID number) at no charge. I didn't need my ID number in a hurry, so I opted for the regular service. I was amazed when I got an email with my number only hours later, at a cost of $129.00! When I opened the email, I realized that it was not from the IRS, but from an agency (GovSimplified) There was also someone I had never heard of, listed as my 3rd party designee. I don't know who this employee is, or why his name is on my application, but I hope that some unknown entity having my SSN# is not going to cause problems later on. I have called them and asked for his name to be removed and the form SS-4 to be resent. I will also file a claim with my credit card company for the fee.
Dear, Mary D
Our company caters to customers seeking additional services; and that do not have the time or desire to deal directly with the IRS. We pride ourselves in eliminating the hassle that comes with dealing with the government. Especially now during tax time the average wait time on is an hour and it is not uncommon for the phone lines at the IRS to be completely not accepting calls due to high volume. We do have multiple disclaimers on our site that state we are in not affiliated with the IRS.
Our services includes but is not limited to lifetime EIN retrieval and complimentary lifetime customer service. This service stays with you as long as you have your EIN and you can avoid the long hold times that are associated with calling the IRS if you have any questions, want to do any modification or are requesting any document about your EIN.
In regards, to the third party designee this required by the IRS to obtain the EIN on your behalf. All processing agent, CPA's and Lawyers must document their name as a third party designee, this designee is the agent that processes your application and is required to be documented by the IRS. Your application can not be processed without it. We do have a checkbox that must be checked by you the applicant authorizing us to be your third party designee. This designee is only for the purposes for processing your EIN on the given date and is null and void after the application is processed and the EIN obtained. You will receive an official confirmation document in the mail within 2-3 weeks this document will not have a third party designee's name on it and you will need to keep this document for your official records.
As a valued client we are here to provide any additional information or explanation that you need to feel comfortable. Our number one goal remains 100% customer satisfaction. Please keep in mind, when filing a dispute with your credit card company the process may take up to 21 days to resolve.
