"This is BY FAR the most comprehensive and user-friendly service I have ever seen."

A Corporation (also known as a "C-Corporation") is a separate legal entity that can shield the owners from personal liability and company debts. As a separate entity, it can buy real estate, enter into contracts, sue and be sued completely separately from its owners. Also, money can be raised easier via the sale of stock; its ownership can be transferred via the transfer of stock; the duration of the corporation is perpetual (the business can continue regardless of ownership); and the tax advantages can be considerable (i.e. you are able to deduct many business expenses, healthcare programs, etc. that other legal entities cannot). Income is reported completely separate via a tax return for the corporation.

After a corporation has been formed, it may elect "S-Corporation Status" by adopting an appropriate resolution and completing and submitting a form to the Internal Revenue Service (some states require their own version). Once this filing is complete, the corporation is taxed like a partnership or sole proprietorship rather than a corporation. Thus, the income is "passed-through" to the shareholders for purposes of computing tax returns.
Most new small corporations elect S-Corporation Status so profits and losses can be added to the shareholders personal tax returns without having to pay taxes on profits once, then again when they are given back to the shareholders as income (dividends). This is known as "double taxation" and is the reason why S-Corporations were created. An S-Corporation can also revert back to regular Corporation status fairly easily.

A Limited Liability Company can be best described as a hybrid between a corporation and a partnership. It provides easy management and "pass-through" taxation (profits and losses are added to the owner(s) personal tax returns) like a Sole Proprietorship/Partnership, with the liability protection of a Corporation. It’s a relatively new form of business created in Wyoming in 1977 and now recognized in all 50 States and D.C.
Like a corporation, it is a separate legal entity; unlike a corporation, there is no stock and there are fewer formalities. The owners of an LLC are called "Members", instead of "Shareholders" "Directors" and "Officers". So in essence, it’s a like a corporation, with less complicated taxation and stock formalities.
We’ll file your LLC formation documents with the State and ship the completed filing to you via your chosen shipping method. Yes, it’s that simple! We also provide you with the necessary after-llc formation paperwork including a personalized Operating Agreement, LLC Organizational Meeting Minutes, "The New LLC Handbook" and a Startup Checklist specific to your state that details tasks like getting a business license, a sales tax permit or hiring employees. See what else is included in our LLC formation packages.
"LLC Formation" or "forming an LLC" is the process whereby you formally create a separate business entity - an official filing where you start an LLC at the state level. Depending on the state, this is accomplished by:
A DBA (also known as a "sole proprietorship", "Doing Business As", or a "Fictitious Name") is a business that is not separate from its owner, merely a different name that the business owner operates under. The owner is personally liable for the company and its debt; all income is added on the owner’s personal tax returns (pass-through taxation). If there is more than 1 owner, than the business is classified as a "Partnership".
PROS: Easy to setup, easy to maintain.
CONS: Owners are personally liable for the company and its debt ( you could lose your house, cars, personal assets, etc.) in a lawsuit. Usually not recognized at the State level, only in your city/county. No corporate "prestige" of having the "Inc." or "LLC" attached to your name.
How to get Started: DBA’s are typically filed at the County Clerk’s office or at the State level. Getting a DBA or FBN can be a complicated task. There are thousands of counties in the United States and each has its own particular filing requirements. Some jurisdictions require a separate publishing in a newspaper that notifies the public of your intent to "do business as" another name.
We Accept: Checks* | Money Orders | Call for Payment
*We have a 7 Day clearance policy on Checks.
One of the unique features of incorporating or forming an LLC (as opposed to filing a DBA) is that you do not necessarily have to form the company in the State where you do business. When deciding on which State to incorporate in, there are basically 2 choices:
For the majority of small businesses, incorporating or forming an LLC in your home state is usually the easiest and least expensive option. This is because virtually every state has laws that require you to "re-register" a Delaware or Nevada company in the state where it is actually doing business.
For example, if you form a Nevada corporation but your physical business is located in Colorado, the state of Colorado will want you to "re-register" as what’s called a "foreign corporation" (a company that was not originally incorporated in Colorado). This is especially true if you intend to get a bank account and business license or rent office space in your home state.
NOTE: We can file a Foreign Qualification in any State, click here to learn more and order online.
In most cases, registering as a "foreign corporation" or LLC will subject you to all the same taxes and fees as an in-state company. So you will probably have not avoided any taxes or fees, plus there is the added expense of registering as a "foreign corporation" in your home state and any annual fees in both states.
This is not to say there are not valid reasons for choosing another State, we just like our potential clients to be aware of the additional steps required when choosing a State outside of their home State. Further discussion with your attorney or other advisor is recommended.
Delaware is where most large corporations (Fortune 500, Nasdaq, etc.) are incorporated. The reason for this is that Delaware’s body of law is more business-oriented and they have a large and advanced business court system to handle complex legal litigation. It is the state of choice for both large corporations, foreign corporations and many fast-growing or high-potential companies.
Nevada has recently exploded in popularity for both large and small businesses. This is due to Nevada’s very pro-business climate, low-tax mentality and the lack of an information sharing agreement with the IRS (all other States share company information with the IRS). Also, shareholders in Nevada corporations are not public knowledge (though Officers/Directors and Members of LLC’s are).
Despite what you may have heard on radio and TV commercials touting the benefits of a Nevada corporation or LLC, many of those companies are encouraging business owners to engage in a sort of scheme that basically attempts to "trick" the home state and IRS into believing that the company is really operating in Nevada when, in fact, it is not. They encourage a business to utilize things like Nevada forwarding addresses, phone lines and bank accounts to accomplish this. This is not something we recommend for obvious reasons. There are legitimate ways to obtain "nexus" for your company in Nevada, but we highly recommend further discussion with your attorney in this matter.
Wyoming also has a very business-friendly climate and features some benefits compared to a Nevada entity including lower filing fees, bearer shares, and more.
Our free Company Formation Guidebook (in PDF Format) takes you step-by-step through the process of incorporating or forming an LLC including:
Our Basic Package includes everything necessary to form a corporation in any of the 50 states and D.C.
Our Basic Package includes everything necessary to form a Limited Liability Company (LLC) in any of the 50 States and D.C.
We don’t just file it and forget it like other services. We utilize a complete step-by-step process to make sure your documents are filed properly.
We send you our "Welcome Kit" that includes the following:
After ordering and providing payment, we’ll provide you with the correct Registered Agent name and address in each selected state to place on your state documents. If a signature is required, we will provide it via fax, scanner or mail.

If you have ordered them individually, we’ll setup these services for you on the Next Business Day and you’ll receive welcome e-mails that show you how to login to your account for each service.
Incorporating or Forming an LLC is the first step in your legal entity’s existence. Below are some crucial steps in perfecting the organization of your new entity.
These steps are essential to starting your business off right. Take some time now to avoid costly mistakes in the future.
Click here for our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about what to do after forming your new entity.
MyNewCompany.com's Guarantee is simple: If you are not satisfied with our business filing services for any reason, please contact us immediately and we will either correct the situation or provide a refund, your choice.
If requesting a refund, simply contact us within 90 days of purchase. Unfortunately we cannot refund money charged by the government (filing or copy fees, etc.). We are, however, very flexible and are willing to work with you to ensure your satisfaction!
Other services will only file the incorporation or Limited Liability Company (LLC) papers and leave it up to you to figure out how to setup your company, hold the organizational meetings and sign the appropriate documents and waivers.
Most of those $49 and $99 Packages are just that: the name search and filing the papers. This does little good as your corporation is almost useless without being organized properly: stock issued, Bylaws adopted (Operating Agreement for an LLC) etc.
In fact, a corporation or LLC that has not performed the necessary after-formation procedures will likely not be considered a separate entity by law and will expose you to personal liability (and thus cancel many of the benefits of incorporating in the first place).
Our Basic Package includes searching your name choices for availability and the preparation and filing ofthe paperwork with the state of your choice.
Then, once your filing is complete, we will provide you with complete personalized Corporate Bylaws (or Operating Agreement if an LLC), corporate documents and necessary meetings "ready for signature".
Other services assume that you know how to hold the appropriate meetings, adopt the Bylaws, issue stock and the like. Our experience is that most people don’t know these formalities.
Even if you order a Corporate or LLC Kit from a company that includes these forms and meetings, they are blank and there are no instructions; we include personalized forms with your company name, directors, officers and step-by-step instructions. Finally our Checklist details and helps you properly organize things like opening a bank account, getting a business license, State Tax ID, etc.
For what our service includes, our prices can’t be matched. See why our prices are so low.
A lawyer would charge you approximately $800-$1,200 for the same services. Our Basic Package starts at just $79 + State Fees.
This fee includes searching for name availability, filing of your paperwork, the State-specific Startup Checklist, the Organizational Meeting minutes, the personalized Bylaws (or Operating Agreement), Notice of Waivers, Yearly Meeting Minutes, our Free Corporate/LLC Handbook and FREE First Class Shipping.
Most services charge from $75-$130 to file your paperwork ONLY. They then add on anywhere from $9-$15 for Standard First Class Shipping.

Compare the total price! Other services include various "correspondent" and "handling" fees disguised as a state fee (we only charge the actual state fee). Some will charge you to be your own Registered Agent (we don’t).
Be sure to compare what our state fee is and what their "state fee" is, sometimes the difference is considerable.

Each corporation or LLC order includes access to a free handbook that details virtually everything you’ll need to know about starting, managing and even changing or closing your company. None of our competitors provide this. We also include an Annual Checklist for maintaining your company and even a checklist of things to do when closing your company.
If your state requires an Annual Report our system will send you an e-mail alert before it’s due. Also, if you order anything that is billed on a recurring basis, you receive several alerts starting at 30 days before the renewal date should you want to cancel or need to change your billing method.
Warning #1: "File-only" shops. Most of our smaller competitors simply file your initial paperwork with the state (if it doesn’t get rejected — less than 1% of our filings are rejected) and send you a copy. This is not the complete process. There are step-by-step procedures (holding an organizational meeting, issuing shares, adopting Bylaws or Operating Agreements, etc.) for properly setting up your company that must be completed. In fact, not doing these procedures will nullify most of the benefits of incorporating or forming an LLC in the first place.
Warning #2: Do the math! Find out the actual state fee (which you can view on our site). You’ll disover that those $49 and $75 services are actually hiding considerable fees within the state fee. Be especially vigilant for "Rush", "Expedited" and "Delivery" fees which can be outrageously high.
Warning #3: Get ready for telemarketing, spam and junk mail from our large corporate competitors. They freely sell your information and attempt to upsell you for the life of your company (one company is famous for calling weekly and never seems to stop). They bypass the "Do Not Call" rules because you engaged their services. Our privacy policy expressly prohibits selling your data or marketing to you without your permission (e.g. you subscribe to our monthly newsletter).

In this day and age, there seems to be scams and misleading information everywhere. If not that then plain old fashion hassles, when doing business. It is almost unbelievable when things go smoothly. I always appreciate good service. Thank you for the good service.

Hello,
I wanted to take a few minutes to thank you and congratulate you for the excellent level of service we received from MyNewCompany.com and our organizer, Chris Mershon. We were in a rush to get our new LLC setup, and Chris and the MyNewCompany.com team were stellar in getting everything in place quickly and accurately.
I plan to use MyNewCompany.com again for my consulting firm, and will happily refer any friends or colleagues to your service. Keep up the great work!
Sincerely,
Rebecca Hinkle

I cant believe that you have already incorporated me in one day!
I enjoyed speaking to you on the phone; you were friendly and very competent.
Now, my corporation is formed and I can move forward. It’s funny. I’m now actually behind on getting my lease since I thought the incorporation would take the longest.
Thanks Again on a great job!
-Jeff Branco
I just wanted to drop a line to let you know how satisfied
I am with your service. I had applied for a trademark
through [A MAJOR COMPETITOR] and let’s just say that
I only recieved a notice from the Federal Government
letting
me know that my intellectual property was abandoned.
This is going to sound horrible, but I was shocked
that you actually did what you said that you were.
The communication was fabulous and quick and my papers
where sent to me much faster than I expected. I will
be using this company for all of my needs and I will
be recommending you to everyone who asks. Thank you
again for your exemplary service.
Sincerely,
Johanna Crawford

I was so impressed by the punctuality and personalized attention that I received that I will not hesitate to promote your business to anyone who wants to go about incorporating themselves online.
Keep up the great work!
-Suzi H.
