Missed it? What happens, and how to fix it
If a filing is missed
If no Annual Certificate is filed within 60 days after the due date, the LLC becomes inactive and not in good standing.
Getting back in good standing
Reinstatement — state fee No fee for the Reinstatement form itself; an Annual Certificate (with its fee) is required for each past-due year. A Reinstatement form must be included whenever an entity is inactive, along with an Annual Certificate for every past-due year.
Why lenders check this before anyone reads your application
An automated know-your-business check compares what you put on an application against the state’s record. A status that isn’t active and in good standing, or a legal name that differs from your filing by a comma or a suffix, is a common silent reason for a decline.
Fixing your status costs nothing beyond the state’s own fees; you don’t need to pay anyone to do it for you.
