Google Plus Business Pages for Publisher ID Gone?

For all the sites Ive built I've created a google plus page to get a publisher ID. Until last week I've been unable to create a google plus business page. Has anyone ran into this problem? Did they move the process to a different link or change the process? The only thing I am seeing as a possibility is that you now need to verify a business address to create a business page but I dont believe this is the same thing.
