Why This Checklist Matters
Most business credit denials happen before an application is reviewed by a human.
Lenders and vendors automatically check:

Bureau readiness
Vendor reporting activity
This checklist ensures your EIN passes those silent checks first.

✔ Registered business entity (LLC or Corporation)
✔ EIN issued by the IRS
✔ Active D-U-N-S number
✔ Proper business address (no PO boxes)
✔ Listed business phone number (411 directory)
✔ Domain-based email & professional website
✔ Dedicated business bank account
✔ Active business licenses
✔ Net-30 vendor accounts reporting to bureaus
✔ Consistent NAP (name, address, phone) everywhere
