    1. Enter the business federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) on the line provided for the claimants's EIN, and
       
    2. Print and complete the Business Affidavit on your business letterhead.

  3. Sign and date the form at the bottom on the line marked "Your Signature."
     
  4. Write your daytime phone number on the line provided for the Claimant’s Daytime Telephone Number, which is located directly underneath the signature line.
