Alpha Phi Sigma, Inc. is a tax exempt organization under the IRS code 501 (c)(3). Each collegiate chapter is considered a subordinate of the parent organization for IRS purposes. Your chapter must apply for an employer identification number with the Internal Revenue Service. To apply for your chapter’s EIN, you will need to complete and submit an SS-4 Form to the IRS. The SS-4 is a simple one-page document that takes a few minutes to complete.

Please notify the National Headquarters if you already have an EIN or as soon as your new tax identification number is received so it can be added to the group tax report filed annually by the National Headquarters.  Do not hesitate to write your personal SSN on the SS-4 Form, as it will not be a liability for you. The IRS wants a person rather than an entity for contact.
