great i found the form... WHERE do you submit online?
Thanks so much. I searched and watched over 20 videos on how to register in the state of Texas but your video was the only video that made any sense.
Glad we could assist!
Thank you for your help. Greatly appreciated 😊
This may be a dumb question... How do I know my file number?
Same question
it's on your business docs. Search your business on the SIS website and view or download your business docs. Also check your email when you first set up the bui
business. It will have your business details
i have been looking and looking on this SOSDirect site and i dont see anywhere the 503 form to submit online
SOSDirect site doesn't make this easy to find. I finally found it by going to Business Organizations. Under "Change Documents", you have to enter your "File Number" for your entity and click the "File Document" button. From there, you can select "Certificate of Assumed Business Name" and the continue button to file the 503 form. Hope that helps!
@@John-by2vv Thank you so so much for this comment! I just spent an hour trying to figure this out and this comment just helped me do the 60 second thing I needed to do ;)
@@John-by2vv Thank YOU! I would never have gotten it.
@@John-by2vv TY FOR THE COMMENT BRO!!! Never would have found it..
@@John-by2vv YOU ROCK! you should've made the video!!! Thanks so much for your helpful comment!
I have an LLC, and filed an assumed name retroactively by mail. I have received my packing slip but i do not know if it was rejected or accepted cus they state is yet to take their 25 dollars. How do I verify the name went through
Thanks, this is a extremely helpful video
if I file sole p, what do I put for entity? I don't have any of the ones listed. Do I just put other and type my name?
That is a good question. Unfortunately, we cannot give legal advice over TH-cam or social media, however, we can direct you to the Texas Secretary of State's helpline which should be able to assist you with that question: 512-463-5555.
Also, we would highly recommend that you consult with a business lawyer in your area. While a sole proprietorship is an option, it may not limit your personal liability. We hope this helps and best of luck with your business.
That's done through the county clerk. Here is the info for Harris county Texas. www.cclerk.hctx.net/PersonalRecords.aspx#ANInfo
Did you figure this out? Same question for me
Do we need to mail a copy of our identification with the application? Does this need to be notarized? If not, it seems like anyone can submit a dba under anyone's name without verification. Can you please confirm? I'm trying to fill mine out as we speak.
Thank you 🎉❤😊
Thank you!
Thanks you so much!
our entity is already on file but hasn't been updated since 2012, we need to add new members for our HOA office. Can you point me in the right direction please
So a DBA becomes an LLC when registered or is it just a now registered DBA?
My business entity is incorporated. If I file for an assumed business name under my incorporated business entity, am I permitted to use "Inc." at the end of my assumed business name? I'm in Texas.
No help....
Once the assumed name is on file, does this mean the dba is actually registered with the state, or is that a separate step?? Thanks
Correct. Once you file your assumed name with the Texas Secretary of State, it is registered with the state for purposes of doing business under that name. Best of luck with your business.
Masteller Law Firm, PLLC Thanx a great deal for responding?
Do you have to file with your county and the Secretary of State to file a DBA?
