What do I do if I received a notice from a Corporate Compliance entity soliciting to prepare annual minutes or file a Statement of Information for my business entity?
Some private companies have been soliciting business through mass mailings to business entities to prepare annual minutes and/or to file the Statement of Information with our office. These private companies are in no way affiliated with the Secretary of State or any other government agency, although the solicitations are made to appear similar to our Statement of Information form. Please refer to our Customer Alert webpage for additional information about these types of misleading solicitations. Complaints related to these solicitations may be filed with the California Attorney General’s office at the California Department of Justice, Public Inquiry Unit, P.O. Box 944255, Sacramento, California 94244-2550 or through the California Attorney General’s website at www.ag.ca.gov/consumers/general.php. The telephone number for the Public Inquiry Unit is (800) 952-5225 (toll free in California) or (916) 322-3360.
