Check Made Out to Different Name Than Corp. Acct

Answered by: 

Question: 
We have a Corporation customer that opened a new wedding event center. He wants the checks to be made out to the event center name but wants to deposit into his corporate account. Is there a document that we can use that states his corporation operates the following businesses? Smith Enterprise is the Corporation operating Smith Event Center Smith Catering Smith Restaurant Equipment
Answer: 

Usually, that documentation would be accomplished by the corporation filing a assumed name certificate with the proper authority, such as the County or the State and providing that documentation to the bank, similar to anyone one else operating a DBA. You should be referring to your Bank's CIP policy.
