If you really need your original approved Articles of Organization in your hands quickly, the Express Mail option can cut the delivery time in half. The Express Mail option has no effect on the Kansas Secretary of State's processing time. 

S Corporations are taxed differently than C Corporations.  With an S Corporation, business profits may be "passed through" directly to the shareholders.  This avoids the double tax on both corporate and shareholder profits.  S Corporations do not pay any Kansas Corporate Income Tax.

We can prepare the S Corporation Election form for you and include it with your final LLC documents package.

Every Kansas LLC is required to have an address within the state of Kansas where official and legal correspondence can be delivered.  The individual or company that is registered with the state of Kansas to receive all correspondence on behalf of the LLC is called a Registered Agent.

You may act as your own Registered Agent, however, many LLCs hire a Registered Agent because they don't have a physical address within Kansas or to provide a distinct level of privacy. 

We can act as your Kansas LLC Registered Agent.  This is an annual service.  We will forward all correspondence to you and will remind you when it is time to renew your KS Registered Agent services.

An Operating Agreement defines the rules by which a Kansas LLC must operate.  Operating Agreements may include requirements for profit sharing, ownership responsibilities and almost anything else that involves the management and operation of the Kansas LLC.

Although an Operating Agreement is not required in the state of Kansas, it is highly advisable to have one for your Kansas LLC.  As your Kansas LLC grows over time, you may amend your Operating Agreement as necessary.

You do NOT file an Operating Agreement with the Kansas Secretary of State. It should be stored in a secure location along with your other LLC documents.

A Kansas Good Standing Certficate is proof of the existence of your new Kansas LLC. The Certificate is issued by the Kansas Secretary of State and is proof that your KS LLC is not behind on any of its Kansas Secretary of State Corporate obligations.

A Kansas Good Standing Certificate is often required for loans, to apply for business licenses, or for tax or other business purposes in the state of Kansas or in any other state.

We can get your Kansas Good Standing Certificate immediately after the Kansas Secretary of State has approved your Articles of Organization.

An FEIN is like a Social Security Number for your Kansas LLC.  We can get your FEIN on the same day that your Articles of Organization are approved by the Kansas Secretary of State.

You can get your FEIN before your articles are approved by the Kansas Secretary of State but it's a good idea to wait until after approval.  Your filing may be rejected or the LLC name that you want may not be approved.  Changing information on an FEIN filing is not a trivial exercise with the IRS.

While you're not required to have a LLC Kit and Seal for your new Kansas LLC they do come in handy.  The KS LLC Kit consists of a beautiful customized binder, member certificates, a member ledger and your custom LLC Seal.

The LLC Seal is used to emboss important company documents, such as member certificates.  The binder also includes dividers so you can use it for all of your Kansas LLC record keeping.

Most new Kansas LLCs are required to get some kind of state, regional or local permits or business licenses.  The task to figure out exactly what you need can be daunting.

We can determine exactly which forms you need to fill out, fill them out for you and file the forms with the appropriate government agency where possible.
