Is A New FEIN Needed? I just changed my corporation name with my state. We are moving in a new direction setting up different DIVISIONS not subsidiaries under the corporation. The IRS says we do not need a new FEIN for a corporate name change...only if a new charter is issued by the state. I believe I will just be getting an amendment to the original charter.
My question is: Would it be better for us to get a new FEIN anyway since the corporation is going in a whole new direction, just to keep the records clear? I would close the books and file the taxes for the original corporation and start fresh with the new corporation under a new FEIN.
Please help!
Thank you!
