This thread is giving me flashbacks to my own Massachusetts filing nightmare last year. Took me FOUR rejections before I figured out the issue.
In my case, it turned out the company had multiple variations of their name in different state databases, and the UCC system was pulling from a different source than I expected. The solution was to try every possible variation I could find until one worked.
It's frustrating but sometimes you just have to be persistent with these systems.
Yeah, it was painful but I learned a lot about how to troubleshoot these issues. The main thing is to be systematic about trying variations rather than just guessing.
I feel like there should be better error messages from these systems. "Name does not match" is so vague when there could be dozens of possible formatting issues.
Update us when you figure it out! I'm curious which solution ends up working. I do a lot of Massachusetts filings and this kind of information is really valuable for future reference.
Also, don't feel bad about the multiple rejections - it happens to everyone eventually. These systems can be really finicky about formatting details that seem trivial but apparently matter a lot to the computers.
I definitely will update once I get it resolved. This thread has given me several new approaches to try, so I'm feeling more optimistic about getting it sorted out.
