How do I file my periodic report?
In Colorado, the only way to file a periodic report is online. These are the steps to follow:
- Visit the Colorado Secretary of State’s website
- Find your business entity using the ID or name
- Confirm that you are authorized to make changes
- Fill in the form
What information is needed in the report?
The periodic report requires that you fill in the following information:
- Name and jurisdiction of your business entity
- Principal office street address
- Principal office mailing address
- Registered agent’s name
- Registered agent’s street address and mailing address
- Notice
- Email notification and disclaimer
- Individual causing delivery
Once you’ve filled out the fields, review the information and submit it.
Are there any due dates?
Periodic reports in Colorado are to be filed within a five-month period—the two months preceding the anniversary month, the anniversary month, and the two months following the anniversary month. Anything outside that window is late.
Let us assume the formation date of your LLC is June 8th, 2021. Your anniversary month is June. You are due to file a periodic report from April 1st to August 31st.
Are there any costs for filing?
Colorado collects a periodic report filing fee of $10 regardless of the type of business entity you operate.
Are there fees for late filing?
Late filing occurs when you file a periodic report after the deadline. You can file a late periodic report within the first two months following the deadline. The late filing fee is $50.
What happens if I don’t file?
If you don’t file your periodic report, your corporation or LLC becomes delinquent. From then on, you cannot file a periodic report until you get back into good standing status.
To do so, you have to submit a Statement Curing Delinquency with a fee of $100. No matter how many years your corporation has been delinquent, one Statement Curing Delinquency brings it back to good standing status.
