In this case, the easiest document to provide is the latest Annual Tax Declaration Certificate delivered by the IRS. The document must not be dated more than 1 year old.
We recommend using this website to merge PDF documents.
Finally, if the company was incorporated more than 3 months ago, but less than a year ago, then you might not be able to collect the last Tax Declaration Certificate.
