Question:

With respect to the form the Expert should complete in SAM.gov, what are the “Taxpayer ID,” the “ALC,” and “Trading Partner ID”?

Answer:

The ALC and Trading Partner ID are not required, since he’s not a federal entity.  The Taxpayer ID would be his Tax Identification Number (TIN)/Employer Identification Number (EIN) or Social Security Number (SSN). If the expert does not want to use his SSN, activating a new EIN with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) takes 2-5 weeks.
