When I export, there is transparency beyond my artwork. There is NOTHING outside of my art board and canvas. I have cropped everything in my artwork to stay inside, yet I am still having a transparency border around it. I have four versions of the same artwork and two out of four are doing this. Zero idea how to fix.

How is your document set up (color mode, units of measure, etc.)? Is the "clip to artboard" option enabled in the Save for Web dialog box?

Color is CYMK and measure is in inches and yes, enabled. Thank you for helping. I usually use photoshop but I need this artwork to be a vector.

Are you trying to convert the Ethan Jones campaign artwork in the PNG image you posted into vector format? If so, you'll need to use Illustrator's native tools to rebuild the artwork. Illustrator's Live Trace and Live Paint functions would only deliver halfway decent results if the source image was really high in quality image quality.
