Clear Gutters

I am only going to work in Dupage, so I don’t see why I would need to register at a state level but i am just wondering if anyone knows something I don’t.

You need an Illinois business license, a DBA Fictitious Name Registration, a Sellers purchase license, and a Federal Tax ID number. None of these are regulated by Dupage County. How do you know that you will only work in Dupage? If someone in Bolingbrook calls you, will you ask them whether they live in Dupage or Will County before you set an appointment? Someone in Lemont would have to tell you whether they live in Cook, Dupage or Will, etc.
