comment Is it feasible to manage 3 to 5 developer interns at a new startup without being in the office?
We can agree to disagree, but if the project is significantly understaffed, as it appears in this case, the lost time to bringing new team members up to date should be offset be actually getting the project done.

Based on recent answer by OP, I'm not sure MMM applies. He only has one developer and if there is more work than the one person can do, you are going to need to add. I do agree with MMM with regard to a reasonably sized stable team, but not sure that's where he is at.

The OP did not specify that the project was late or properly staffed. If this project is understaffed, then I would say that the Mythical Man Month analysis does not apply. If this project legitimately specs out as a 5 person job and they only have 2, then adding 3 doesn't hurt. OP did not specify enough about the current staffing to make this judgment. The question was about managing the interns, not whether he should be adding staff in the first place.

comment Acquiring Tax ID Number
I didn't say that this was definitely right for OP. My point was that federal requirements don't necessarily match your own states requirements and that you need to check with your state. I give my experience in NJ just as an example.
