Amendment Filing FAQs
An amendment allows you to change the information in the Articles of Organization or Articles of Incorporation you have on file with the state. Most states require you to file an amendment whenever the information in your original business formation documents changes, such as your address, business name, members, registered agent, etc. Your business information is kept on file in two places, with us and with the state your business is formed in.
