They work to ensure compliance with state tax regulations and provide resources and support to taxpayers to help them understand and fulfill their tax obligations.
There are several important deadlines during tax season. There are deadlines for employers to follow regarding the preparation of necessary employee tax forms, and for employees to follow when filing their taxes.

Consider the following scenario: You’re the founder of a new startup, which you incorporated in Delaware, but you live in California. You need to register your company as a foreign entity to do business there.

Essentially, a Certificate of Good Standing validates the legitimacy of your business. Business owners might use a Certificate to register to do business in another state, apply for a business loan or insurance, seek financing from investors, or lease commercial space.
