Reinstatement

Back Into Good Standing

If you missed a report or two, your state may have administratively dissolved or revoked your company. That means you can lose the right to do business, sign contracts, or open accounts under it — and banks will notice. Reinstatement puts it back. We work out exactly what your state needs, file it, and get you current.

What's Included

  • A standing check first — we pull your entity's exact status and what caused it
  • Every missed report the state requires identified and priced up front
  • Reinstatement application prepared and filed with the state
  • All state fees (reinstatement + back reports + penalties) passed through at cost, itemized
  • Stamped confirmation of reinstatement delivered by email
  • Your next deadline flagged — add Auto-File and it never happens again

You can file a reinstatement yourself, directly with your state, for just the state's own fees — we'll always tell you that. Some states cap how long an entity can stay dissolved before reinstatement is no longer possible; we check that before you pay anything.

How It Works

1

We check your standing

Send us the legal name and state. We pull the entity's status and find out exactly why the state dissolved or revoked it. Nothing is charged yet.

2

We price the whole path

Reinstatement usually means back reports plus penalties plus the state's reinstatement fee. You see the complete total — ours and the state's — before you approve.

3

We file everything

Missed reports and the reinstatement application are prepared and filed together, in the order your state requires.

4

You're current again

The stamped confirmation lands in your inbox, and your next report deadline is flagged so it doesn't repeat.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my business was dissolved?+

Your state's business search will show a status like 'administratively dissolved,' 'revoked,' or 'inactive' instead of active. Banks and lenders often spot it before owners do. Send us your name and state and we'll check for free.

Why is it 'quoted' rather than one flat total?+

Our service fee is a flat $199. What varies is the state's side: how many reports you missed, each one's fee, and the penalties on top. We confirm the exact figures with the state and show you the full total before you approve anything.

Is there a deadline to reinstate?+

Often yes — many states allow reinstatement only within a set window after dissolution, after which you'd have to form a new entity. We check your state's window as part of the standing check.

Will this stop it happening again?+

The filing gets you current; staying current is the annual report. Put the company on Auto-File ($139/yr) and we file it every year ahead of the deadline, so a lapse doesn't repeat.
