Legal Question in Tax Law in Connecticut

my business

Business started 3/292000 I have been filling taxes under my s.s.#. My accountant says I do not need a e.i.n.#, but when I filed for a grant they told me I needed an e.i.n.# and I should of had one all these years. Question 1: Have I paid more taxes then I should of ? Question 2:Is there any recourse for me, because of my accountants incompetence ? Michael, thank-you
