Navigating Compliance > Compliance

Ensuring your LLC complies with state and federal regulations involves maintaining essential documents and understanding your tax obligations. Below are key compliance requirements:

• Operating Agreement: Updating your operating agreement to ensure it stays current and matches the company's changes.
• Statement of Information: Filing your statement of information periodically with the state and checking the due date on it in BizFile.
• Registered Agent Duties: Ensure your registered agent is available to receive legal documents and state correspondence, and that they forward these documents to you promptly, or that you can receive them if you are your own registered agent. This allows you to fill them out or read them in a timely manner.
  • Mostly, all you will need is to file a statement of information by its due date.
  • Receive notices like lawsuits if you unfortunately get one.
• Tax Filings: Making sure you pay your taxes and the yearly franchise tax which is crucial for maintaining compliance. Refer to the Tax Lesson for more information and how to do your taxes.

Regularly updating and filing these documents will help keep your LLC in good standing and avoid penalties.
