Creating a Legit Business "Stealth" Account
 

Hi all!

Alright so, got my LLC set up and got my EIN, few questions before I set up the account though, as I want this to last for a long time, if not forever.

Question #1 - Although it's a business account, it still ask me for my "legal first and last name"... I've already used my legal first and last name on my personal account... am I safe to use it here as well? If not, would I be good to use a variation of my name? Example.. say my name is Charles, I could put "Chuck".

Question #2 - For the address, I set up a PO Box at my local USPS, but paid for the feature to where it actually has a "Home Address" so it's actually a real street address and doesn't say "PO Box" anywhere on it. However.. I've been limited before on my personal account, and when that happened they requested a Utility Bill... now i'm not sure what they request for a Business Account, but I wont be able to provide a utility bill for a PO Box lol.. anyone have some input on that?

I think that's all for now, look forward to some expert responses!

And just because you have an EIN doesn't mean they won't IMMEDIATELY ask for SSN on paypal. Last two I tried they asked for SSN and proof of business address via electric bill and others.
