What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
Hello, I opened up a small business LLC in New Jersey over 10 years ago, but recently moved to PA. (it's still registered in NJ though)
It's basically a work-at-home off of affiliate commissions from websites type of business. I never actually sell physical items , and I have no employees. It's just me and my laptop. At that time I was told I just need to open up the LLC with an attorney and i'm good to go. Which is what I did.
But now, the more I read online, it's like the more I need in general to run the business.
Business License ? Does this even apply to me ? (if so, i'm baffled why nobody told me earlier that it's required)
I'm also reading now about a Home Occupation Permit . the definition says :

I'm also reading now about a Home Occupation Permit . the definition says :
any help is much appreciatedMany city and county zoning and planning agencies require all home-based businesses to get a Home Occupation Permit. If a permit is not required in your city, the zoning office can tell you if your neighborhood is zoned for the home business activity you plan to conduct. If your area is not zoned for your type of business, you may need to file for a variance or conditional-use permit.
