I then logged on to the IRS and got an EIN https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small...ber-ein-online.

After that I had to file for the Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) at https://www.pay.gov/public/form/start/62759871 .. By the way the exemption status request fee was $275.

Now it is just a waiting game for the 501(c)(3) exemption request to be approved... But as of right now i have officially formed my non profit company and it has been issued an EIN..
UPDATE..

I got my 501c3 approval letter from the IRS! I officially have a nonprofit with Tax exempt classification.. The IRS has a huge backlog.. I submitted for tax exempt approval on in 03/2021, and didnt receive the IRS approval letter until 9/10/21.
