If a sole proprietorship account is styled Jane Doe dba Jane's Jeans, we would use Jane Doe's SSN for the tax ID. If Jane's Jeans has its own EIN, should the account be styled the same? I always understood the first name on the legal title should match the tax ID number.

How do we complete Part 1 of the CTR for a sole proprietor's deposit of money if they are not conducting the transaction? We know Section B would be who is conducting the transaction. Do we have to fill out 2 Section A's, one for the business information, and one for the sole proprietor's personal information?

I have a customer who has an LLC set up with one owner. They would like to use their own social security number. Would I set this up any differently? Do I use his name or the name of the LLC first on our computer system? I was concerned with the interest reporting.

Borrower is a corporation with one shareholder. All business assets are pledged as collateral. Lender wants the spouse to also sign on loan docs, with the concern being that she may gain ownership of at least 1/2 assets should they divorce. Would asking her to sign be a violation of Reg B? If so, does the lender have a bona fide concern regarding assets or does the fact that the borrower is a coporation make this a non-issue? Flip side: What about if the borrower was a partnership or sole proprietorship and the spouse has no role in the affairs or function of the business? (e.g., farmer Bob who takes a loan secured by crops.) Lender wants to add wife to loan as a condition for the same reasons listed above. How should I advise my lender?
