Common mistakes

  1. Neglecting to Read Instructions: Many applicants overlook the importance of thoroughly reading the instructions provided with the Texas AP 169 form. This can lead to misunderstandings about what information is required and how to properly complete the form.

  2. Writing in Shaded Areas: Some individuals mistakenly write in the shaded areas of the form, which are specifically designated as off-limits. This can result in the application being rejected or delayed.

  3. Incorrectly Filling Out Identification Sections: Errors often occur in the identification sections, such as providing the wrong Social Security Number or failing to check the box indicating if one does not have an SSN. These mistakes can complicate the processing of the application.

  4. Omitting Required Signatures: Failing to include the necessary signatures from all required parties, such as the sole owner or corporate officers, can lead to the application being incomplete. This oversight can significantly delay the approval process.

  5. Providing Incomplete Business Information: Incomplete entries for business information, such as mailing address or contact details, are common mistakes. These omissions can hinder communication and the processing of the application.

  6. Not Attaching Necessary Documentation: Applicants sometimes forget to include required documentation, such as a copy of the trust agreement if applicable. Missing documents can result in the application being returned or denied.

  7. Failing to Include Previous Owner Information: When applicable, neglecting to provide information about a previous owner can lead to complications, especially if the business was purchased. This information is critical for the application’s accuracy.

  8. Ignoring Contact Information: Many applicants do not provide a contact name or daytime phone number, making it difficult for the Texas State Comptroller's office to reach them for any clarifications or additional information needed.
