Using US Filing Services

How does US Filing Services work?

We simplify business compliance by helping you file required state documents like your annual report. Just confirm your business information in our secure online form and we’ll take care of the rest.

Which states do you support for annual report filings?

We currently support a growing list of states including California, Georgia, Florida, Washington, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.

What is an annual report for a business?

An annual report is a required filing that keeps your business information up to date with the state. It typically includes your business name, address, registered agent, and names of key officers or members.

When is my state annual report due?

Each state sets its own deadline. Some are based on the anniversary of your business formation, while others have a fixed calendar date. We track deadlines for you so you never miss a filing.

What happens if I miss the annual report deadline?

Missing your deadline can lead to late fees, penalties, or even suspension of your business. Filing on time helps keep your business in good standing.

Do I need to file an annual report every year?

Most states require annual filings, but some follow a biennial schedule. We handle both types so your business stays compliant no matter the timeline.

What information do I need to file my annual report?

You’ll typically need your business entity name, principal office address, registered agent details, and names of company members or officers. Our form walks you through each step.

What if my information is already pre-filled?

Some users receive forms pre-filled with public business records. Just confirm or update the information before submitting.

Can I file if I missed my deadline?

Yes. Many states offer a grace period or accept late filings with a fee. We can still help you file depending on your current business status.

What happens after I file?

Once your report is accepted by the state, you’ll get a confirmation email. This serves as proof your business is compliant for the year.

What if my state calls it something different?

 Some states use other names for annual reports:

  • Annual Registration (Georgia, Virginia)
  • Statement of Information (California)
  • Biennial Report (Iowa, Indiana)
  • Annual List (Nevada)
    Our system translates every state’s process into one simple form.

Products

This bundled option saves you time, reduces stress, and helps avoid missed deadlines.

Is this subscription available in all states?

Not yet. It’s currently available in select states. You can check availability directly on our website.

Do I need to do anything after subscribing?

Just fill out our short onboarding form. We’ll handle the rest, from filing your report to maintaining your Registered Agent service.

What if I already have a Registered Agent?

No problem. We can help you switch or work with your current provider to make sure there’s no disruption.

Will I be reminded before my subscription renews?

Yes. You’ll get a renewal reminder before your plan renews. There are no surprise fees.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes, anytime. If we’ve already started your filing or submitted fees to the state, we’ll let you know what’s refundable.

Why should I subscribe instead of filing on my own?

Filing on your own takes time and research. Our subscription handles everything for you, with expert support and automatic filings that keep you in compliance year after year.

Support & Troubleshooting

I didn’t receive my confirmation email. What should I do?

Can I edit my information after submitting the form?

If we haven’t submitted your report to the state yet, we may be able to make updates. Reach out with your order number as soon as possible.

We send personalized notices based on public records, but we’re not a government agency. Using our service is optional, and you can always choose to file directly with the state.

Is my business information secure?

Yes. Your data is encrypted and processed through our secure filing portal.

I’m not sure if I need to file. How can I check?

You can visit your Secretary of State’s website or contact our support team for help checking your business status.

The state says my report is late. Can you still help?

In most cases, yes. We assist with late filings depending on your state’s rules and the status of your business.
