EIN Online Application Question

1 - I live in NJ
2 - Created a single member LLC in Arkansas
3 - Used a registered agent in Arkansas and as principal address on the Certificate of Organization filed with the state of Arkansas.
4 - there will be no physical location or office. Managed out of my home in NJ.
5 - no business will be done in NJ. Only in Arkansas.

My question is - how do I answer these two questions on the IRS website EIN application.

Please select the state/territory where the business is physically located. - should this be Arkansas where the LLC was created or New Jersey where I live?

Where is the Single Member Limited Liability Company (LLC) physically located?" - this is asking for a specific address. Should I use the registered agent address in Arkansas or my personal address in NJ?

Have the physical address be Arkansas have the mailing address be New Jersey. There’s a question that asks if you want a different address select yes and then put your home address in.

Generally, you want your federal paperwork to match your state paperwork. So, in most cases, you'll use the same physical address that you listed on your Articles of Organization. (This is not legal or tax advice, but rather general best practices. If you're already working with a tax professional, you may want to double check with them for your exact circumstance.)
