2257 Compliance
My website has been going for about 2 years now. The majority of my income comes from either the affiliates I have on my website or advertising that I sell in my monthly online magazine.
I just tried to get an account with an online payment processor and they want me to have a 2257 compliance statement up to get approved through them.
I've been reading through the rules, reading a bit about it, but it is hard to understand how it would apply to me. The ruling mentions "secondary producers" but really that statement is a bit of an oxymoron.
I am an affiliate. Not a producer.
And, furthermore, obviously they want an address listed on the website which would obviously give away the privacy I have enjoyed. Of course, I realize the further we get here, the more that goes away, but I was hoping to squeeze by a bit longer.
Any thoughts on this?
