The Ltd. Liability Partnerships Process

After we receive your payment, our specialists will review your information for completeness and common mistakes, and prepare your Certificate of Limited Liability Partnership.

In many states, we may not be able to sign the Certificate of Limited Liability Partnership on your behalf. Instead, we will deliver it to you for signature. Once your materials are submitted, the document review period will vary depending on the state where you file. Non-expedited orders typically take about 20 to 35 business days to complete. Express Gold orders are completed in 7-10 business days.

For your convenience, we can prepare your Tax Identification Number application for self-filing. Or, to make it even easier for you, we will obtain your Federal Tax Identification Number on your behalf, for an additional fee.

Your LLP becomes active when the Certificate of Limited Liability Partnership is accepted for filing with the state. Once we receive the filed Certificate, we will deliver it to you along with your LegalZoom LLP package.

If you requested LegalZoom to prepare an Application for Tax ID that you will file, an officer of your LLP must sign the application before submitting it to the appropriate state agency.
