App Store Connect Rejected Your Tax Info?

Apple is notoriously strict about matching your "Paid Applications" contract info with your tax profile. Even a slight variation in your legal name can block your payouts.

Messages like "The Legal Name does not match the name on the tax form" are common, especially for solo developers.
