[WSBAPT] EIN for settlement trust req'd

[John Keckemet]

Settlement trust (irrevocable) approved by court to receive funds related to a minor settlement for personal injuries.  Must an EIN be obtained for the trust?   None would be required if the parents were simply acting as guardians!  Would like to avoid requirement to prepare return or suffer trust tax rate.  Thanks.
