    Thanks for a useful video, like all your other videos. I note your comment about the BOI report needing a US address but that doesn't belong to a RA (Registered Agent). What I find strange is that a RA I know says that the Corporate Transparency Act effectively prevents using the RA address for the IRS also. I find this difficult to believe. Comments very welcome.

    Very clear video that partially answered to my question regarding the address of the Llc we just established. Law it's very confusing because we used the registered agent address (Northwest ) but to fill the Boi can't use that. We don't have a phisical address because we don't need it and at same time I don't want to use my personal address as a shareholder. Considered that company is registered in Nevada can we use street address of a friend of us in Vegas who agrees to do that? The registered agent wasn't able to answer to my question. Thank you

Then they are trying to sell me their services of $149.00 to file it for me. LOL I am like no I think I will do it on my own but did some things a little backwards and created a FinCen ID first :(. I have one question and that is on the part for the reporting company page would I check to Request to receive FinCen ID or just leave that part blank since I have an ID already? Also one more question and that is for the Company Applicants section would I need to fill this out as well or leave it blank? TIA

    When reporting an LLC that has a trust as the beneficial owner, do we report the name of the trust anywhere in the BOI Report? Example: Beneficial owner information - 38. Individual’s last name or entity’s legal name: NAME OF THE TRUST; 39. First name: GRANTOR’S NAME
    ???
    Or do we just report the grantor’s information and do not even mention the name of the trust?
