How to Form an S Corporation
The Company Corporation will guide you through the steps to incorporate your business either online or by telephone. We simplify the process of registering your new S Corporation:
- Form your S Corporation online or contact a Business Specialist at 800-818-6082 (toll-free) or 302-636-5440.
- We assign your order to a Business Specialist, who contacts you if there are any problems with the preliminary name search.
- We complete Articles of Incorporation (for a corporation) or Articles of Organization (for an LLC) on your behalf. A few states require us to get your signature on the completed documents before submission. Normally, we submit documents directly to the state.
- We file your documents with the state.
- We forward the state approval notice to you (generally within 5-10 business days, but turnaround time varies by state.)
- You apply for S Corporation status through the IRS by filing form 2553.
