I know~I checked there, too.....it doesn't say a thing and I am NOT up for calling HO this morning and waiting for a call back in 4 hours! I am just going to get the ID# to have and see what happens when I actually go to submit it!

Where do u put the tax ID # at?
 
I think the ID# comes into play when taxes are filed. I'm not sure it has anything to do with HO. It should be between the school district and the IRS.
 
The guests have to pay tax. The school isn't paying for anything so there is nothing for the tax id to be used for.

Thanks Beth. I know the guests have to pay tax but what about the school when they file their taxes?

That doesn't have anything to do with HO. HO will send a check. They don't take taxes out of the money they send the organization. The school will use their ID when they do their taxes.

okay, no wonder I didn't think of it.....
Thanks!
 
The only time we need to deal with a tax ID is when an organization is purchasing products for their kitchen or something like that. I believe we have to contact HO in that instance.
