I don't recall anything about this with USB. Any data points on applying for a Carlson Bus card with a brand new business? Because that's the only kind of business I have, and I'm not about to lie on the app.
Well than I'll be the DP. I've had a CC personal card open for 7 months, with $4K spend so far. Applied 4 days ago for a CC Bus card. Applied with 'less than one year in business, zero income, one employee (me), generic retail business'. Got a "we will let you know" message. Then today I see USB has added it to my account page with a $17K CL.
