Post Questions from Amazon tax interview

So I noticed a few members on here were asking what were some of the questions asked on the tax interview. So below I copied and pasted a few. Note, I did this while filing my tax under an LLC so the questions will be more relevant to those seeking to file under an LLC.

Below are the contents

Getting started
If you are unsure about how to answer a question, refer to Help by either selecting the ? next to the entry field for pop-up Help, or by reviewing the application help available at any point in the interview process.

We will now begin by collecting your tax information.

Consent for Electronic Signature
You may be required to sign your tax identity document. In order to electronically sign your tax identity document, it is necessary to obtain your consent. If you do not provide your consent, at the end of the interview you may be required to print the form, sign it with a blue or black pen, and mail it to the address that is provided.
*I consent to providing my electronic signature.
Yes

No
-----
Consent for Electronic 1099 Form
If you would like us to provide your information reporting documentation that is required by law (for example, 1099-MISC, 1099-K) electronically, it is necessary to obtain your consent to receive these documents electronically.
*I consent to electronic receipt of my information reporting documentation.
Yes

No
-----
Tax Status
*For tax purposes are you a U.S. citizen, U.S. resident, U.S. partnership, or U.S. corporation?
Yes

No
In general, you are considered a U.S. resident if (1) at any time during the calendar year you were a lawful permanent resident of the United States immigration laws and this status has not been rescinded or administratively or judicially determined to have been abandoned or (2) you have been physically present in the United States on at least 31 days during the current year, and 183 days during the 3 year period that includes the current year and the 2 years immediately before.
-----
U.S. Person
You have selected that you are a U.S. Person for tax purposes.
Next we will gather your personal or business information.
-----
*Are you preparing tax information as an Individual / Sole Proprietor or on behalf of a legal entity such as a Corporation, Trust, Partnership or LLC?
Individual or Sole Proprietor

Corporation, Trust, Partnership or LLC
-----
Business Information

For legal entities, enter the legal entity name on the “Legal entity name” line and any business, trade or “doing business as (DBA)” name at the "Business or trade name" line.
*Legal entity name
A value is required
Business or trade name
-----
Federal Tax Classification
*Select your federal tax classification.
A value is required
If your federal tax classification is a limited liability company,
select your type. -A drop down menu containing s, c or partnership
-----
Address
Enter your address as provided to the IRS:
*Address Line 1 (Street address)
A value is required
Address Line 2 (Suite, unit, building, floor, etc.)
*City / Town
*State
*Zip code
*Country
-----
Tax Identification Number
Enter your Tax Identification Number (TIN) and select whether you have provided your Social Security or Employer Identification Number. The TIN that you provide must match the name given in the earlier interview.

If you are a sole proprietor, resident alien or disregarded entity, your Social Security Number may be your TIN. For all other entities, enter your Employer Identification Number.
*Tax Identification Number
A value is required
*This is my
SSN number

EIN number
-After entering your TIN, you have to choose between classifying it as your SSN or EIN #.

Those are the questions from the interview, which everyone here should be familiar with.

Once submitted, you wait for them to approve it. If you did everything right then it should go through. An LLC cooperation is the best solution to this problem of tax ID.

Yes. You will without a doubt get linked. Do not attempt it; unless you've never been suspended before. But even then, It's always best to use an LLC.

Big question. On the third (I believe) page, it is asking for electronic signature. I have to type my name. Is this my real name or my stealth name that the amz account is in?

I did use my LLC as registration and EIN that is attached to that LLC. Please help as I am on this step now and not sure how to continue.

Thank you.

Foreign nationals don't have a SSN in the USA, therefore I don't think you can have a US Amazon account. Are you asking regarding Amazon US? I've been able to successfully form an LLC in the US where one partner in it was a foreign national, so maybe that's a way to get an EIN to use in order to setup an Amazon US account.
