Why shareholders get stuck

You may not have access to company-side cap table or legal records.
Your CPA needs facts, not vague QSBS claims.
The company may not know what evidence to send.
Missing issuer evidence can slow down review before a sale, tender offer, acquisition, or tax filing.
A clean, structured request saves rounds of back-and-forth.
