I’m getting METV. I’ve had my business online for almost seven years now but have never needed a business license here in California. I saw that it was required to show it when applying for the METV. Yes I do have the $7,000USD to show as well.

I thought I saw that when I looked a while back. Maybe it’s my mistake. I’ll have to double check now. I hope you’re right!
