Warning: Search results only include "verified" organizations (i.e. organizations that have been verified
electronically or has an approved paper Electronic Signature Agreement) unless the search is specifically
conducted using the 'Organization Id'.

This means that organizations created by Certifiers with approved ESAs are returned in search results if the
search is conducted by organization name. Organizations created by Preparers will not be returned in the
identical search since Preparers are not required to have an ES A.

Preparers creating an organization unique to your facility should record the 'Organization Id' and provide this ID
