California Bill Seeks to Change Statement of Information Due Dates

California Bill Seeks to Change Statement of Information Due Dates
Posted on March 3, 2016 by

In early 2015, California Assemblymember Cheryl R. Brown introduced Assembly Bill 871 (AB-871), which seeks to change the filing period for when business entities in California file their annual report, known in California as a Statement of Information.

Currently, Statement of Information due dates are tied to the entity’s date of formation. Under existing California law, all Corporations and Limited Liability Companies must file an initial Statement of Information within 90 days after the filing of its original articles and periodic updates are due annually for corporations and biennially for limited liability companies, before the end of their anniversary month.

AB-871 proposes a switch to a fixed date model that would align California Statement of Information due dates with the federal tax filing deadlines based on entity type. AB-871 would require that:

  • All For Profit Corporations file their Statement of Information annually, by March 15
  • All Limited Liability Companies file their Statement of Information biennially, by April 15
  • All Nonprofit Corporations file their Statement of Information annually, by May 15

The bill’s author and other supporters suggest that standardizing the Statement of Information filing dates would eliminate confusion businesses face as to when Statements are due, thereby increasing compliance.

In April 2015, the Assembly Committee on Banking and Finance passed AB-871 by a vote of 11-0 and referred the bill to the Assembly Committee on Appropriations. There are no new votes scheduled for AB-871, but the California Society of Enrolled Agents (CSEA) who is sponsoring the bill indicates they expect the bill to begin moving again soon.

Do you support a switch to a fixed date filing schedule for Statements of Information in California? Leave a comment with your thoughts!
