Use Form SS-4 to apply for an employer identification number (EIN). An EIN is a 9-digit number (for example, 12-3456789) assigned to employers, sole proprietors, corporations, partnerships, estates, trusts, certain individuals, and other entities for tax filing and reporting purposes.

For estates and trusts, that would normally seem to be one of the personal representatives or trustees. (However, the instructions to Form SS-4 somewhat confusingly state that the responsible party for a trust is a grantor, owner, or trustor, which doesn't seem right, especially for a testamentary trust.)

On line 3, check the "Individual/sole proprietor or single-member LLC" box. ... Provide information about your LLC. ... Confirm your information and sign the form. ... Submit the completed form.
