In Florida, I can (and have) setup a LLC, DBA S or C Corp within 5 minutes online with the state and have the documents needed to open bank accounts, get credit and just about anything else needed from food service suppliers to corporate banking cards, within 24 hours.

As soon as that new company is registered and shows on the states website, I am good to go with any new company formed... For between $50 and $150 a time depending on the type of company I am forming.

My suggestion for those of you not yet having a company formed, would be to seriously look into the benefits of setting up an LLC in your home state.

Once you have the stuff filed with your state, simply go to the IRS website and request a Federal EIN number, it takes less than 5 minutes and you get the number immediately via their site, with all the Federal papers being received around a month later in the mail.
