Company filings?

If I form a new company how much paperwork will I have to file each year?

Once you incorporate, a certain amount of maintenance and follow-up is needed to keep your operations in compliance. Typically, this means updates on ownership, any changes in the resident agents, changes in corporate officers, and of course, any tax liabilities for your particular state or municipality. Failure to file current paperwork or taxes (as in the case of not getting your local licensing up to date), can be a costly proposition for companies that need resources to go to more productive uses than late fees or fines. This is especially true if you have employees and are subject to payroll taxes at a state or federal level.
