Just because her name is on the paperwork doesn’t mean it qualifies.
Control—not ownership—determines eligibility for woman-owned business certifications.
Too many companies are trying to game the system by listing their wives as the owners, while they retain control behind the scenes. It doesn’t work that way.
✅ She must lead the company.
✅ She must control the operations.
✅ She must make the decisions.
✅ She must have the technical requisite to run the business. (Why you think they ask for resumes?)
If she’s not the one actually running the business, it’s not woman-owned — and certifying bodies will catch it.
