New, thorough business license application crossing a line?

Hazleton, PA changes its business license application in an effort to reduce business fraud.

Councilman David Sosar disagrees with requesting what he believes is an unnecessary amount of information from business owners, including social security numbers, banks used for business accounts, names of accountants and utility information…“We’ve all been getting a lot of calls from residents who are business owners,” said Sosar. “They don’t want to provide such a great deal of information; they think it’s intrusive.”

We won’t judge if this is a necessary or potentially overreaching step to take in preventing fraud, but we will tell you that no matter what the business license application process is like, we can help with the filing. We can also help figure out what licenses you need to file yourself.

Internet Celebrity in GA Caught without Business License

A YouTube celebrity has been cited in Georgia for operating a business from his home without a license.

…Cobb County code enforcement officer cited Justin Chandler for illegally running a business out of his house, saying that the “videos he makes for income can be considered business activity” made with business equipment. Chandler argues otherwise…”This extremely unique and rare scenario poses the question: [Does] filming and uploading YouTube videos from your home constitute the home as a business?” he asks.

As this modern type of business trend grows more popular, the definitive law needs to be decided. Otherwise, people will keep getting caught off-guard as in this case.

SC County Changes License Law to Avoid Problems

Crackdown underway on South Carolina businesses as leaders change business license law to curb illegal activity.

Now, new businesses will have to complete a detailed application that identifies everyone involved in the business. They’ll also have to identify who will be operating the business, give any criminal or nuisance history, and businesses serving alcohol after midnight will have to complete a safety plan…“It’s all about safety, creating safety in these late night establishments to help our police officers know who we’re dealing with…

Better to avoid any illegal activity to begin with. Figure out what licenses and permits your business needs, file for them, and obtain them.

No Liquor License, No Problem in California

Beauty salons in California can now serve beer and wine – free of charge – to customers sans liquor license, according to a new law.

A popular high-end salon chain, Drybar, was the driving force behind the bill…”That was something women were talking about – why they loved Drybar – they loved getting their hair done, they love the confidence they had when they went out the door, but they also love having a glass of wine while sitting here,”…The new law does not mean bottomless booze for your beauty treatments. It mandates that salons can only serve 6 ounces of wine or 12 ounces of beer per customer. The drinks also have to be free and have to be served before 10 p.m.

While salons in California caught a lucky break, most establishments that sell any type of alcohol need a liquor license, as it’s a heavily regulated field. Business Licenses, LLC can help file for your liquor license.

E-cigs Take After Tobacco in CA

California beings to treat e-cigarettes like tobacco as they implement stricter regulations, requiring a seller’s permit.

The California Department of Public Health’s state health officer noted that e-cigarette use among people ages 18 to 29 tripled in 2014…In Modesto, Riverbank and Hughson, those cities have amended their definition of smoking to include e-cigarettes and other electronic nicotine devices, applying all smoking laws to those products.

If you’re looking to sell e-cigarettes in select California towns, then look to Business Licenses, LLC for assistance in filing for the license you now need.

South Carolina Looks Into A Uniform Licensing Law

Columbia, SC and other cities in the state are interested in implementing a standardized business license law.

Businesses large and small complain that nearly each of South Carolina’s 270 cities and towns – and a few counties – use differing classifications, due dates, government forms and rates to issue licenses that allow them to operate in municipalities, according to advocates for a statewide, uniform law.

Although it’s revolutionary and makes the process easier, effort and work still needs to be done to file for the license. Let Business Licenses, LLC or LicenseSuite  help with that.

A City Bids Farewell to Renewals

Businesses in Glenview, IL no longer need to renew their licenses annually as it proves too time-consuming.

Officials decided to get rid of the license renewal fee because the process of filling out applications, collecting money and following up with business owners who missed the deadline was time-consuming for village staff, Kenney said.

Business owners in Glenview may be rid of the obligation to renew their licenses, but they still need file for them initially. Let Business Licenses, LLC or LicenseSuite  help with that.
