STATEMENT OF INFORMATION
A $20 form can freeze your whole business
Every California LLC must file a Statement of Information every two years; corporations file every year. Miss the window and the state adds a $250 penalty. Keep missing it, and your entity gets suspended — it can’t sign contracts, can’t defend itself in court, and banks can freeze its accounts until you fix it.

Questions owners actually ask
What is a Statement of Information?
A short mandatory form (LLC-12 for LLCs, SI-550 for corporations) that keeps your addresses, officers and agent current with the California Secretary of State. It’s required even if nothing changed and even if the company had no activity.
When is mine due?
LLCs: within 90 days of formation, then every two years by the end of your anniversary month — in years matching your formation year (even/odd). Corporations: within 90 days, then every year. An updated statement is also needed soon after key changes, like a new agent or address.
What happens if I file late?
There’s a 60-day grace period. After that the state assesses a $250 penalty ($50 for nonprofits) — and continued failure leads to suspension or forfeiture.
What does “suspended” actually mean?
A suspended entity can’t legally do business in California: contracts become voidable, it can’t defend itself in court, and reviving it means filing everything overdue plus paying penalties. Prevention costs $69; revival costs weeks.
What do you need from me?
Entity name and 12-digit entity number (we can look it up), business and mailing addresses, names and addresses of managers/officers, your agent’s info, and your email. Never your SSN or EIN.
Are you a law firm?
No. DueKept is a private document-filing service. We don’t provide legal advice and no attorney-client relationship is created. For legal questions, talk to a licensed California attorney.
Is $69 really everything?
Yes — our work plus the state’s filing fee. If you’re overdue, the state’s penalty is separate and goes directly to the state.
I got an official-looking letter demanding ~$243 for “compliance processing”.
Many of those letters are private solicitations designed to look like the government. The real state fee is $20–25. Forward any letter to us — we’ll tell you for free whether it’s real.
Refunds?
If we fail to file, or the state rejects the filing and we can’t fix it, you get a full refund.
Built to be the opposite of those scam letters
You’ve probably received official-looking mail demanding money for “compliance”. We exist to make this simple and honest instead: flat prices, the real state fees, proof of every filing, and a human who answers email.
