We be happy to check for\nyou to help avoid the duplication of your payments.\nTip 9: VERY IMPORTANT…Please check the following before you submit your registration:\n1. correct spelling of company name\n2. business size\n3. fee amount\nTip 10: You MUST fill out your registration statement completely or it will be rejected and\ncause delays in the processing your registration.\n………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………\nWe have a new bank location for you to submit your registration by mail.
