I was told that obtaining an EIN may take up to 6 weeks. But when reading Form SS4 instructions I saw a phone number for callers from outside the USA... Just call the number and get your EIN instantly on the phone, I did so... But this EIN is also given for companies not formed in the USA I believe, and it starts with 9. I'm not sure if Visa will accept this... I haven't filled the W-7 form, I'll check what it is from irs.gov

Call 1-215-516-6999, but make sure you have completed SS4 form. Operator will ask you to fax your SS4 and a copy of your passport (pages showing your picture, expiry date and passport number)... You should fax the documents while you are on the phone, because your fax may get lost in their large office.

I couldn't do anything with finding a US citizen principal yet.
