Special Notes

YOUR NEW FILING INFORMATION (PUBLIC):

15. Would you want a phone call before we file to go over everything?

Yes

No. I'm in a hurry, don't need a phone call.

16.

Please make this exactly how you would like it. Some people like commas and periods, some people don’t. For example, some people would like: ABC Incorporators, INC. and others would like: ABC Incorporators INC

INC can be spelled out as Incorporated or you can use the name: Corporation or abbreviate as Corp. Similarly, LLC can be spelled out as Limited Liability Company, or LLC. Or L.L.C. It’s totally up to you. We will make the filing with the exact abbreviation you choose.

The name is important. This should be exactly what you want. You should think of how you're going to answer the phone. If you can pronounce it over the phone, if you want to say it over and over again, if it goes with your logo, if a competitor already has it.

The name has to be distinguishable from any other name already on file with the State. We will do a preliminary name check once we receive your new order, and if we see a problem, we will call you and discuss the options we think won’t have a problem going through.

Desired Name

17.

The secondary name, is used only if your first choice is taken. We do a name check on your first choice before we make the filing. If for some reason, we think there is a conflict and it may get rejected, we will call you to talk about the option you picked as a secondary name.

Secondary Name

18.

The "principal" address, is what we list at the state level as the main physical address. Technically, this is where the records should be kept. If you desire to list our registered agent address as the physical address, we will keep a copy of your filing in your online account, and if you or we make an operating agreement or corporation by-laws, we’ll need to store a copy of this in your online account as well, so that we can access your documents at our actual in-State address.

If you have a office where you are conducting business out of, have employees there, etc., this would be the address we list here. If you’re forming a holding company or something of the sorts, and don’t have an address you would like listed publically, you can list our registered agent address as the principal address.

You can check the boxes here if it’s the same as the main contact address info, or specify a new address in the box provided.

This is the mailing address you would like listed with the State as your mailing address. In some States this actually matters, because they mail the annual report to this listed address. For most States, it doesn’t really pertain to anything, with the actual formation documents. You can click the box to use the address you listed with your account, or specify a new address if you would like.

Most people prefer to list managers on record at the State, because a manager doesn't necessarily have to be the owner. It is considered a little more private. Usually you list the members in the operating agreement and appoint the managers in the operating agreement. They can be the same person. Sometimes people want to have something more "On Record" with the State, to prove ownership of an LLC. If this is the case, we can list the members and have it member managed.

Is the LLC managed by members or managers?*

The President is often the highest titled corporate officer. If there is no CEO appointed, (Which usually small to medium sized companies have no need to appoint a CEO) the President is as high as it gets in the company. Most States allow us to list the business address for all officers. The President is usually looking after the daily functions of the company, and the highest person in the regard of daily operations.

You can add other officers like Vice Presidents, Assistant Secretaries, CEO, CFO, etc.

20e.

The directors are usually the same people as the President, Secretary, and Treasurer, unless you have a big company that wants to have a greater mix of people on the board of directors. On a big company, the board of directors may consist of some of the officers, regular paid employees, and some non-company people who have an outside interest and views to help the company.

Directors are normally nominated by the shareholders directly, and thus could be voted out by shareholders at any point. Directors are in charge of appointing the President, Secretary, Treasurer, and any other officers.

Directors:

All Officers are Directors?

Yes

20f.

A corporation has stock, and the stock is organized by having shares of the stock. Typically, you would have 100 shares, or another easy number is 1000 shares. The stock of the corporation is the ownership of the corporation. We must issue shares of the stock, and the shareholders will own the shares, and thus, own their part of the corporation. These shares exist and are active once the articles of incorporation are filed at the Secretary of State.

We recommend keeping your number of shares lower because some States will have higher filing fees and ongoing fees if you keep a high number of shares. The value of the share is determined by you, making it kind of pointless to have millions of shares of a company.

The shares in the corporation are going to be bought by you the shareholder. This is what gives the corporation operating money. The shares can also be bought by you with assets, such as equipment, real estate, accounts receivable, etc. Usually, you will determine the value of these shares with the par value. So if you want to fund the company with $1,000.00, you could have 1000 shares and make the par value $1.00 This is a nice way to document what you’re starting the company with, but not entirely necessary.

Shares Authorized: *

20g.

The Par Value has no real relevance of value of the corporation. For simplicity, we recommend no par value or $1.00. The buying of the shares of stock you authorize to issue can be bought through a bill of sale regardless of what the par value is. Here are our 2 points to remember about par value:

If you make it zero or $1.00 it will be easier to sell the shares or give them away.
If you make it a real high value, it will be harder, or take more money, to sell the shares, or get "taken over" by other shareholders in a deal gone bad. Shares of stock cannot be sold for less than the par value.

95% of corporations we see will be best suited listing zero or $1.00.

Par Value: *

20h.

Most people will issue the full amount of shares authorized. The stockholders are the ones who authorize a set amount of shares. Let’s use 1000 as our example. The stockholders vote the directors into their roles. The directors, then issue shares of stock to the shareholders.

If you might have additional investors down the road, you would only issue 501 shares, so the company would retain 499 shares (A Minority, so you always stay in full control) and the company could then sell and issue the 499 remaining shares to an investor.

Shares you would like to issue: *

20i.

For simplicity sake, most people will issue common stock. This means, every share of stock is the same. Dividends will be divided evenly. It’s the most simple.

If you watch the news, you might recall Citibank getting bought up by our Government. The government got preferred shares of stock, meaning they got paid first upon a total collapse. You can specify preferred stock, but this is only really necessary if you are going to have a multitude of different investors and shareholders, and you want to really specify some of the powers of each investor. 99% of small to medium businesses and even a lot of large corporations, just keep it simple, have all common stock. It's the simplest choice.

All common shares?

Yes

Typically we will put a generic purpose clause in your articles along with a specific purpose if the state allows it.

We provide a Washington attorney written fill in the blank operating agreement template with all our LLC’s. It’s in a PDF and a word doc. If you would like us to customize this to your needs, we can do so for you. We can add some specific language or itemize out some internal specifics for you in this document.

A great option as well, is always to hire us to form your company, and do the paperwork part, and then hire an attorney for an hour or two to talk over your new company with, and have an attorney prepare the operating agreement. This should cost you $300.00 max to have an attorney write the operating agreement. This combined with our filing service can save you a lot of money.

Please keep in mind, there’s no law requiring you to even have an operating agreement. You don’t file an operating agreement with the State. It’s an internal document. It really only becomes crucial, if you have a lot of members and investors. The real point in an operating agreement is to document what two or more parties are bringing into the company, so that if you ever split up, you’ll know what to do and how to divvy up the assets.

Completed, prepared and customized operating agreement ($100.00):

24a.

A Federal Tax Identification number is usually essential to set up a bank account and establish separation between you and your new company. You can obtain this from the IRS yourself, or we can do it for you. If you plan on making money with the company, you’ll eventually have to file a tax return, and thus need a tax ID number.

You will also definitely have to get a tax ID number if you plan on hiring employees.

Tax Id ($50)

24b.

If you don’t have a social security number, we can obtain a tax ID number for your company. You don’t even need your company incorporated in America for this service. We can get your number for you regardless of where it’s formed. If you have a social security number, this is not an option if you just don’t want to give it to the IRS. If you have a social security number, you will have to link that with the federal tax ID number you get for a business.

Tax Id if you don't have a
social security number ($200)

S Corp ($50): Yes No

In Washington, setting up a company is only the first step. Everything goes off the Master Business License. We’ll obtain this for you. The State filing fee is $15.00 plus $5.00 for every dba that’s different in name from your company. This is where you register with all the different State agencies and tell them what you’re doing as a business. You can also do this yourself, but most people get it messed up, and all of a sudden, you’re filing zero returns with all kinds of State agencies you didn’t even know existed, and spending hours on the phone trying to figure out who is sending these notices to you.

Almost every bank will want to see that you have a Master Business License before they will give you a bank account.

We not only get your license, we’ll set up an online account for you at the State to make it easy for you to pay your taxes and report different business reports to the various State agencies. Our $125.00 service includes the State fees, unless you have a whole bunch of DBA’s and then we can bill you for the $5.00 for each one.

Dept. of Revenue & Master Business License Registration ($125 plus government fees, if there are any):

27.

We can help you obtain your license that governs your specific trade, such as a Contractors License, Electrician License, or a plumbers License. You can also do this yourself, but the licensing board that governs you is going to want to see all the company paperwork first. Our fee does not include the State’s licensing fees.

License registration, preparation of documents on state and local level ($125 plus government fees):

28.

We’ll get your employment withholding accounts set up with the IRS the State.

EFTPS IRS payroll setup ($250.00):

29.

Apostille & Overnight UPS shipping ($200.00):

Certified Copy of Filing ($50.00):

Yes, that's right! For only $35.00 we'll file your annual report for you. You won't have to worry about getting late fees, and worse yet, losing your ability to operate in Washington State.

The State fees are $69.00 for a total of $104.00. For $35.00, it's a bargain to have us file for you, so you don't have to worry about it.

Annual Report Compliance ($104.00):

If you have a specific need or additional filing we have talked about over the phone or email, and need to pay a little more, you can add the dollar amount we have talked about here.
