Question: If i file a FBN or DBA in California and get a tax ID number or EIN would i then be considered as employed?
I ask this because i have an idea of what to do to generate income, but i would want to do it legitimately. I lost my job about 7 months ago and have been receiving un-employment assistance. Would the filing of the FBN or DBA along with the filing of the EIN number jeopardize my monthly assistance (assuming i don’t generate any income of course.)
Answer: Any earnings from employment or self-employment must be reported. Filing a DBA or getting an EIN does not mean that you are employed.
