Global Entrepreneur Funding Partners

ITIN + Shelf Corporation Process

Global Entrepreneur clients start by securing their ITIN through a compliant IRS process (4–6 months, $30K). Once approved, they can purchase a shelf corporation and immediately access Burns Funding’s Corporate Capital Program, backed by the Burns Funding Method repayment strategy.

Here's How It Works

Initial Consultation

Burns Funding team meets with the foreign national client to review goals, funding eligibility, and shelf corporation opportunities.

At this stage, it’s determined that an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is required before moving forward.

Shelf Corporation Cost

$250k Shelf Company – $30,000

ITIN Application Process

The ITIN is issued directly by the IRS and is mandatory for participation in U.S. shelf corporations and funding programs.

Requirements:

Upfront payment of $30,000.
Standard timeline: 4–6 months for IRS review and approval.

This process is handled with full compliance and due diligence, ensuring that only qualified clients are approved.

Burns Funding Oversight

While the ITIN is being processed, Burns Funding guides the client on:

Credit repair & optimization (if applicable).
Positioning for funding approval, including online presence and documentation prep.

The ITIN process acts as a vetting mechanism, only clients committed to compliance and financial credibility advance to the next stage.

Objections & FAQs

How old are the corporations?

Our smaller shelf corporations are 2–3 years old, while our larger shelf corporations are 4+ years old.

Does the corporation come with established credit?

No, but it is fully set up to apply for and build credit. We will assist you in this process.

How long does the process take?

Once the contract is finalized, the process typically takes up to 6 months to complete.

How does the Credit Card Conversion work?

Unused credit lines are converted into cash to fund the purchase of the shelf corporation.

What happens after the loan is paid back?

Once the loan is fully repaid, your credit line resets to zero, and the credit is restored. You can then choose to use your credit or start another round of funding.

I don’t want to pay upfront?

The payment for the shelf corporation is required upfront but you can apply for a Bridge Loan to cover your Shelf Corporation cost.

What contingencies are in place if something were to happen to the Burns Funding team after funding is secured? Specifically, how is the borrower protected in terms of repayment obligations and ongoing support?

We’ll back your repayment with four stable, income-generating assets: exotic car rentals, Airbnb arbitrage, eCommerce stores, and a proprietary FOREX trading platform. We’ll use our half of the funding capital to acquire these assets to pay back your 100% of your loan, and they’ll generate enough monthly income to cover repayments. To protect you, we’ll maintain a reserve fund covering 2–3 months of payments in case anything unexpected comes up.

We’re also in the process of securing wholesale life insurance policies to guarantee repayment if something were to happen to us.

Plus, we’ll have a solid legal agreement in place between Burns Funding and each Shelf buyer to make sure all obligations are clearly defined and protected, even if leadership ever changes.
