SB267,1,3

An Act

to amend
183.0122 (2) (d) 1. a. of the statutes;
relating to:
the fee for
2
filing limited liability company articles of organization with the Department
3
of Financial Institutions.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill expands the filing fee exception for a student entrepreneur who forms a limited liability company (LLC).
Current law establishes a fee of $130 for filing LLC articles of organization with the Department of Financial Institutions. However, DFI may not collect this fee if the LLC members or organizers are all student entrepreneurs. A “student entrepreneur” is defined as a student who is at least 18 years of age, enrolled in a postsecondary institution in this state, and an organizer or member of an LLC formed as a business start-up.
This bill expands the definition of “student entrepreneur” to include a student who is enrolled in a public, private, or tribal high school in this state or is homeschooled.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
