I'm in a situation where I'm currently working with a manufacturer and he asked for my business tax ID. I thought he was referencing my state seller permit #. I find out that I didn't set up an LLC, instead I created a sole proprietorship. So I filed an articles of organization LLC form with the secretary of state and paid their fee 2 weeks ago.

My understanding is that with a sole prop. the business tax ID is my social security #, which is not professional to use. I should be receiving....something back from the California SOS soon. However for anyone who has created a California LLC is this the correct process? Was the business tax ID issued along with the new permit? I skipped sending any form to the IRS and also did not buy a local permit, no point since I've only invested $3-400 in my website, misc. items.
