Electronic Filing Submission Form
LLC Statement of Information
Form LLC-12

In California, owners of LLCs are required to file a special document with the California Secretary of State’s office called a Statement of Information, or Form LLC-12. This is a form that helps establish the legality and validity of your business by registering certain details with the state. Along with filing your Articles of Organization to start your LLC in California, Form LLC-12 is required to show the state that your business exists, that you are operating a business and that you are in good standing with the state regulatory authorities. It proves that your business is a legitimate entity and that you as the LLC owner deserve to keep enjoying the benefits and personal liability protections of an LLC. In case there are any changes to your business, such as a change in the business address, change in ownership or business leadership, change in the type of business or other relevant details, you are required to update the state on these changes by filing a new Form LLC-12. The form also includes details about who is authorized to receive service of legal process on behalf of your LLC, whether it is you as the business owner or whether you designate a Registered Agent to receive those formal notices or official mailings. Our forms are very user friendly and of course you are welcome to call for instant service. Getitfiled.com has been filing LLC-12's in California for over 15 years.
