What is an Annual Report Filing?
An annual report filing is a process of updating your company records with New Jersey state authorities on a yearly basis. Business entities such as corporations, LLCs, and partnerships must submit an annual report in every state that they are registered to do business. Failing to file annual reports with the New Jersey secretary of state’s business division may lead to late fees and penalties, the loss of ‘good standing’ and active status, and consequent administrative dissolution of your entity and business name. Depending on the type of entity and state of formation, incorporation, or qualification—you may have to pay an annual report filing fee with different deadlines to submit your paperwork, online or by mail. A New Jersey annual report filing, like incorporation, is a legal procedure done best with the help of business formation attorneys. Let the professionals at Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. perform your annual report filings in New Jersey accurately and on time.
