Frequently asked questions
Is $99 the total price?
No. $99 is our service fee. You also pay the state's filing fee and any optional extras you choose.
Do I need an SSN to form an LLC?
Not to file the state formation document. Owners without an SSN can apply for an EIN by fax, phone or mail; the IRS online tool needs an SSN or ITIN.
Will you guarantee my EIN?
No. The IRS issues EINs. We prepare your application and help you submit it.
Do I need to file a BOI report with FinCEN?
On August 11, 2026, FinCEN finalized a rule exempting U.S.-formed companies from federal BOI reporting. Foreign companies registered to do business in the U.S. still report, and some states have separate rules. Confirm current rules at fincen.gov.
Can I open a U.S. bank account from abroad?
Some banks and fintech providers accept non-U.S. owners. Each makes its own decision, and we can't promise approval.
How long does formation take?
The state sets the timeframe and it changes. We email you when the state responds.
Do you give legal or tax advice?
No. FileUSLLC is not a law firm or CPA firm. We provide filing and administrative help and general information.
What is your refund policy?
If we make an error, we refund the same amount you paid. See the full refund policy.
