Additional provisions may be advisable or necessary, depending on the specific needs of each corporation.

You are strongly advised to seek legal advice from an attorney, and tax and other business advice from an accountant. 1. File the Articles of Incorporation, which contains a Written Consent to Appointment (both portions signed before a notary), and the requisite $75 filing fee with the Secretary of State’s office. 2. The Articles of Incorporation may be delivered to the Secretary of State’s office in advance, for filing as of any specified date (and any given time on such date) within 90 days after the date of delivery. Requests should be made in writing and must be submitted along with the Articles of Incorporation. 3. Please call the Internal Revenue Service at (800) 829-4933 for information to obtain a corporation’s federal tax identification number. 4.
