When parents claim me for taxes do I give them my S.S number or a tax id number? If Tax Id number, I don't have one, what should I do? Thanks ....

If you haven't set up a EIN (fed Tax ID) then yes, you have to use your SS#.

To get your EIN, go to www.irs.gov and search for "Online EIN". You fill out a few screens and then will get your EIN. No cost.

Yup, here's the exact link, I just did it the other day, took 5 minutes and got my number immediately.
