Maintaining a Registered Agent
Most states require that you have a registered agent that can
receive important mail from the Secretary of State should they need
to contact you. There are many commercial options available or you
can use Mosey to be your registered agent and keep your information

The decision to hire remote workers can transform your business. You’ll have access to a national (or even global) talent pool, save on overhead costs, and provide a valuable incentive to join your team: According to a 2022 Future Forum study, 80% of knowledge workers desire a flexible work location. Remote work can also increase employee satisfaction and productivity, improve work-life balance, and even support diversity and inclusion—employees who lack transportation, can’t afford to live near the office, or even need to pick up the kids every day at noon won’t necessarily be precluded from full participation.
Workers’ compensation laws are there to protect both businesses and their employees. Knowing the laws is essential, whether you’re an employer ensuring coverage for your team or an employee who wants to know your rights in case of a workplace injury or illness.
It’s important to note that these laws differ significantly from state to state and can change over time. Failing to stay compliant could bring severe financial and legal consequences for your business.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA), commonly known as Obamacare, transformed the American healthcare scene. It introduced key provisions like the individual mandate (requiring most Americans to have health insurance) and the employer mandate.
The employer mandate applies to businesses with 50 or more full-time equivalent employees, also known as Applicable Large Employers (ALEs). It requires ALEs to offer minimum essential coverage to their full-time workforce or face potential penalties from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
