I recently closed my business but just realized I haven’t filed the annual report for the last year. Do I still need to file it, even though I’m no longer operating? What steps should I take to ensure I don’t face penalties or complications in the future?

Yes, even if you’ve stopped your business, you are still required to file the annual report until you formally dissolve your LLC with the state. Failure to file the report could result in penalties, fines, or the administrative dissolution of your LLC, which may cause complications if you decide to restart or reinstate the business in the future.
To avoid such issues, it’s important to officially dissolve your LLC through the state’s dissolution process if you’ve stopped business operations.
