Yes. EIN assistance is listed as part of BeaconComplete. An EIN is a federal tax identification number, not tax-exempt status. Beacon can assist with obtaining the number as part of the setup process, while the IRS is the agency that issues it.

Beacon Nonprofit is a formation and filing-support service for nonprofit founders. BeaconStart is the simpler package, with name verification and Articles of Incorporation preparation and filing. BeaconComplete adds guided 501(c)(3) application support, registered agent service, bylaws, EIN assistance, and expedited processing. Beacon's public site currently lists packages starting at $99 plus state filing fees, which are separate from Beacon's service fees. When comparing packages, focus on which specific tasks are already done and which the selected package covers; government charges and approval decisions stay separate from Beacon's service work.

Package features and government charges can change, so the current Beacon service page and the applicable agency fee schedule should be used for a purchase or filing decision.

How Beacon Nonprofit can help: BeaconComplete includes EIN assistance as part of the nonprofit setup process. Beacon can use the organization’s approved formation information to help prepare the EIN request with consistent legal-name, address, and responsible-party details, reducing avoidable mismatches between state and federal records. The EIN itself is issued by the IRS, and obtaining one does not create tax-exempt status. Beacon’s role is to support the filing process and help organize the information needed for the request; the IRS controls issuance, and banks or other institutions may impose their own document requirements after the EIN is received.
