2. Mainstay Filing: best for one fare for opening and keeping the LLC

Widest reach$199 yearly

Mainstay Filing sits at stop 2 because $199 a year puts the filing, the registered agent and the annual report on a single bill.

At renewal the annual report is handled, and nothing is owed to the state.

The fare covers

  • Leg one done for you: the formation is drafted and filed
  • Registered agent duty held through the year
  • The annual report drafted and sent in by Mainstay
  • The EIN application is part of the route
  • The state's fee reaches you at cost

On the plus side

  • A flat fare of $199 a year
  • $199 again next lap
  • EIN filing is part of the fare

On the minus side

  • Its renewal fare is $100 higher than Idaho Registered Agent.co's
