    Understanding the requirements for registering your company in the USA is vital, but the process can be complex. That's where working with an adviser is invaluable. They provide insights into regulations, help choose the right business structure, ensure tax compliance, and offer tailored strategic advice for long-term success. Partnering with an adviser streamlines registration and equips you with the knowledge to navigate the US business landscape confidently.

      Understanding the complexities of company registration in the USA can be overwhelming due to regulations. Knowing the requirements and choosing the right business structure while ensuring tax compliance is crucial. While advisers could simplify the process, I'm unsure where to begin. With up to a million to invest, I need guidance on finding assistance and navigating the US business environment confidently.

    Great video !!! However, I know the government has moved away from the DUNS system but you still need to be registered with DUN and Bradstreet and have a DUN's number to get past the entity validation process. They use DUNS data to register your entity and verify you have a legit business along with a business address. They also are going to start using FINCEN CTA data to make sure the owners are who they say they are. Once you list your home address the government is going to want to see a lease if it's NOT physical office space. This also could take weeks to get done as they are very very SLOW.

Re your second question, I wish we could apply once and get whichever certifications we qualify for, but unfortunately, that's not how the government works. We do have to apply separately for the 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB certifications.

      They changed the questions at the beginning of the process, and lots of people asked me to remake the video to show how to answer those new questions. After you get your UEI, please go back into SAM to complete the remainder of your registration, including Reps & Certs, Points of Contact, NAICS Codes, etc. That stuff is the same as before. I posted a new stand-alone video to help people answer the NAICS code question in the registration. If you have questions about other pieces of it, let me know.

      At some point in the registration process, they will ask you what you are trying to do. If you are certain that you will not be applying for contracts, then you can check the box for applying for grants. Either way, you start out the same, to get your business registered in SAM. PS: I've had lots of SBIRs and some are grants and some are contracts!

    - The steps instructed by FSD, but after being implemented in the sam.gov system cannot be realized, because in the sam.gov system you have to enter the documents again.
    - When we followed up by re-entering the document, it turned out that we got a new incident number, and our data which previously had an accepted status instead had a rejected status.
    - We have followed all the stages and times of the registration process in the sam.gov system according to the instructions in the sam.gov system for 4 months and there have been no results.
