What information is needed to file:
- Your exact legal business name, as registered with the state

- Your principal office and mailing address
- The names and addresses of the members, managers, or officers on record
- A working email address for the state's confirmation
What Happens if You Miss the Deadline
A missed report doesn't stay quiet. Illinois charges its own late penalty, your company falls out of good standing, and banks, lenders, and clients can see it on the public record. Left long enough, the state administratively dissolves the entity — at which point you need a reinstatement (with every missed report and penalty paid) rather than a simple filing. We file early specifically so none of that starts.
How Standard Filings Files Your Illinois Annual Report
COMPLETE A SHORT QUESTIONNAIRE
Tell us your company name and Illinois details. It takes about two minutes, and nothing is filed or charged until you approve the total.
WE PREPARE AND SUBMIT YOUR FILING
A specialist checks your details against Illinois's requirements, then files the report through the state's proper channel ahead of your deadline.
YOU RECEIVE CONFIRMATION
The stamped confirmation lands in your inbox for your records, and we flag next year's due date so it never sneaks up.
Why Use a Filing Service Instead of Filing Directly?
Honestly? Plenty of owners shouldn't. If you know your deadline and you're comfortable with Illinois's portal, file it yourself for just the state's fee — we'll always tell you that. People hire us for the same reason they hire a bookkeeper: they'd rather not learn another government form, and they don't want the deadline living in their head. You get a specialist checking the details, the filing made early, a stamped confirmation on file, and a person who answers when you reply.

How much does a Illinois annual report cost?+
Two parts. Illinois charges $75/year — that's the government's own fee, and we pass it through at cost. Our service fee is a flat $159 to file it once, or $139/year to file it for you automatically every year.
When is the Illinois deadline?+
First day of anniversary month. We file well ahead of it, so a late penalty never has the chance to land.
Can I file the Illinois report myself?+
Yes — you can always file directly with Illinois for just the state's own fee, and we'll say so every time. We're the option for owners who'd rather hand off the paperwork and never think about the deadline.
Is Standard Filings a government agency?+
No. Standard Filings is a private document-preparation and filing company, not affiliated with Illinois or any government agency.
