Corporate entities are perpetual; they do not expire unless the by-laws of the corporation proclaim that it will when the company is organized. This question would be best referred to an appropriate state agency where the corp was created since corporations are organized under state law (and laws vary from state to state). Most states require that an annual report be filed by the corporation along with a filing fee. Failure to do so could result in your corporate charter being revoked/voided (which effectively ends the legal standing of the company). Revoked corporations can probably pay back fees and file past reports in order to have the charter reinstated. You should contact either the Secretary of State or the Division of Tax/Finance in the state of incorporation to find specific detail on your corp.

Is an incorporation a corporation?

Well, sort of. Incorporation is actually the process whereby a corporation is formed. It's not proper to call a corporation an incorporation, but some people do because they're unfamiliar with these terms.I think you probably get it at this point, but I'll throw a sentence together just to show how the terms should be used."I'm considering incorporating, because I think that incorporation would be beneficial to my family and my business. I'm excited because I've never owned a corporation before."Sorry for the overkill. I just wanted to make sure everything was clear.Good luck,Dana OliverIncorpAcademy.com
