But in Illinois I believe an S Corp will be $100 including franchise tax, it looks like an LLC is $250. Mine is an S Corp, you need to issue stock, designate officers, file an annual report, and I believe you need a registered agent. Not sure about an LLC or PC.
Maybe Steve is just talking about a sole proprietorship, I’m not familiar with the process, but you may not need to do anything more than file your DBA name with the county clerk. As long as you don’t have employees or collect sales tax. From: Bill Prince Sent: Thursday, August 06, 2015 8:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Legalzoom +1. You can do an LLC or an S corp for just the filing fee ($25 in CA). The process is fairly simple; even I can do it. Doing a DBA is also pretty simple, and only costs $10 or $20 to publish. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 8/6/2015 6:15 AM, Joshaven Mailing Lists wrote: You probably don’t need a lawyer to file the LLC. I’ve seen companies that use one where the lawyer is payed to fill out a form that is easier to fill out then a 1099ez. Look into getting a LLC form form the state first… you probably want a lawyer to draw up your articles of organization though.

I assume everybody here did this among other things once upon a lonesome. It's like 99 to 150 bucks plus the filing fees. Is a dba something you can muck up on your own?
