Audio Transcript
Travis: What are the legal requirements to keep my LLC in good standing?
Yosef: Well, again, Travis, that's going to depend on each state.
Travis: That makes sense.
Yosef: I know that in California, there's an annual statement of information that has to be filed, in the state of California. Typically there's a $25 fee. There's also a state tax file that has to be filed with the minimum required tax that is due.


I know that in Nevada it's very different. Again, depending on which state you're operating in, those requirements are going to vary drastically.
Travis: OK, probably something else that could be checked out on the Secretary of State's website I imagine.
Yosef: Yes. The Secretary of State would actually make it very clear as to what the requirements are.
Travis: OK.
Yosef: Generally once you incorporate with the state they will send you some material in the mail telling you what they expect from you every single year.
Travis: Oh, wow. Trying to make your life easy, huh? Government doesn't always do that but they try.
Yosef: Yeah.
