They don't. I just bought a car from a dealership on August 1 without a credit check.

The dealership wanted to run a credit check if I were to pay with a personal check, but not if I paid with certified funds. I called my bank to have my debit card limit raised to $40,000 for 24 hours and paid for the car on my debit card with no credit check.

Did you have to do the IRS form stuff?

It's hard to recall all the forms that I signed that day. I don't remember any IRS forms.
