Providers must protect their EFINs and passwords from unauthorized use and never share them. This includes accepting payment for the use of an EFIN (e.g. renting/leasing/purchasing) and/or transferring EFINs to another entity when transferring the business by sale, gift or other disposition. In addition, when you resell software you cannot include the EFIN. An ERO (Electronic Return Originator) must originate the electronic submission of only returns that the ERO either prepared or collected from a taxpayer.
