If they check it and things don't match or it doesn't exist you may get limitation.
They cannot check Sole Proprietor.
All I am saying is if you go the LLC route then you really need to have a LLC with state after a certain amount of sales....
| Oh man, I thought they merely checked to see if the EIN existed with the IRS.
Do all states show public info on the owners? I thought there were a few that had an option to withhold that information (For example, Nevada. And, maybe Wyoming, but that might only appear anonymous because you can put a surrogate on the board in your place.).
Wait, I stand corrected. You can hire a registered agent to put in the public record for Nevada, Wyoming and Deleware. However, I can imagine there's only so many registered agents available to hire, and I'm sure paypal knows of nearly all of them by now (At least the ones you're most likely to find). |
