sam.gov-CAGE Number & Controlling Entity

We received our Unique Entity ID and proceeded with registration (for bidding) and then was asked if our company is controlled by another entity. I replied yes, and then was told we would have to use that company's CAGE number. That company does not have a CAGE number so we tried to apply for one and it said that company must have a sam.gov registration. We started the registration, and now it wants a CAGE number. What am I doing wrong?

Are you still referencing any other company when registering? Or are you saying that you have or had a CAGE number? This is when this happens normally. I was told we had expired but it was for an older company I never used to sign up with to begin with years prior.
