How do I get the Reseller License I have an LLC and I have registered with the IRS and received an EIN #. I then Registered for Texas Tax Registration. I am trying to find out what is next and where to go Is it the same as a Business License? or is it a Sellers License?

✔ Biz Structure

You can choose to be a(n) E Commerce :

Sole Proprietor,
LLC,
Corporation or
Partnership.
After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.

✔ Biz License

Chicago Business Tax Registration ( Business License)
All businesses including home, online or mobile BUSINESS need a BUSINESS license because they are BUSINESSES.

✔ DBA Biz Name

A(n) E Commerce business using a DBA Doing Business As Trade Name in Cook County , i.e., starting businesses using a company name other than the legal (given name) owner's name, need a(n) DBA Doing Business As Trade Name Registration. For example, you start a(n) E Commerce business and you call it "Ultra E Commerce Co". You will need to file a trade firm name for it.

✔ Seller Permit

Also, keep in mind that in IL though, a business license and a DBA is necessary for most businesses but if your business sells any taxable items, you will need a sales tax ID number. (A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale, reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).

✔ Federal EIN

Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID. However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a business tax ID number.
However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting a federal tax ID number.

✔ State EIN

If you are thinking of hiring help, you will need a state employer ID and an IRS number employer ID. I.e., a IL Federal Tax Id Number ($29) and a(n) IL State Employer Tax Number

✔ L L C

Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in Chicago, Incorporate in IL or form a(n) IL LLC .

If you will set up a corporation or form an LLC, you will not have to file a DBA (Doing Business As) unless your corproration or LLC name will be different that the busienss name you will trade under. Businesses that use the full legal name of the owner as a business name do not need to register an assumed business name. So, for example, your name is "John X Doe" and you use that as a business name.

✔ Incorporation

If you do form an Other llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your E Commerce business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba), it will help you avoid legal and financial personal liability arising out of business transactions and you will not have to register the Chicago business name. Instead of filing a Cook County fictitious business name (our service fee includes dba business name filing and legal paper publication) you can elect to incorporate in IL or form an IL LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes bylaws and LLC operating agreement)..
