* Due to difficulties determining authority to act and ownership, the Service will not accept a proposal from spouses jointly as a purported
business entity. Either one individual must serve as the offeror or the spouses must form a corporation, partnership, or limited liability
company to serve as offeror.
** If the sole proprietorship acts under a name other than that of its owner (i.e., does business as “company name”), also add the jurisdiction
where the company’s trade name is registered, if any.
