1. Can I pay for an address change online with a credit/debit card?

   • Hi Russell, yes you can. Log in to PENN File, click “Domestic Limited Liability Company”, then click “Change of Registered Office (1507-8825)”.

     • Matt I tried to file online and it looks like you cannot do this. Can you please provide more information or pictures to help. I would like do to this online but it doesnt look possible. looks like its only done via mail in.

       • I just filed and paid online for changing my address.
         – Go to https://www.corporations.pa.gov/
         – Create and register a new online account (if you don’t already have one)
         – After you login, click “Home” and it will take you to “My Dashboard”
         – Scroll down the page, you will see “Start or Manage Business Filings”
         – Select your business type and then select what you want to file

         • Thanks Jeff!

       • Hi Sean, the outline by Jeff is correct. From the list under the “Start or Manage Business Filings” header, select “Domestic Limited Liability Company”. From there, click on “Change of Registered Office (1507-8825)”. Hope that helps!

     • Hi Matt, it looks like the PennFile login is not recognizing my username or password. However, they are both correct. I recently created a new account and verified the email.

       • Hi Oscar, did you create a new Keystone Login and synchronize it with your PENN File account? We recently updated this page with the new information on Keystone Login (new in 2020). Let me know if that works for you.

         • Hi Matt, I have a login to both and I am looking to change the address for our LLC. We paid to do it by mail a year ago, but it is still showing the old address. I can not seem to find the online method? I tried logging into both systems it just brings me to the printable form.

           • Hi Joe, have you “synchronized” your PENN File login with your new Keystone Login? If not, please see this page (Pennsylvania LLC Certificate of Organization) and search for “Keystone Login” and “synchronize”. Please let me know if that helps.

2. Hi Matt,

   I had IncFile perform the LLC formation for me with personal residence as business address. If I wanted to rent a UPS mailbox, can I just fill out the form with the new rented mailbox address without having them do it? Could you also clarify which address I put on the address change form? The Articles of Org was originally completed with them as the registered office but the business address is personal residence.

   Thanks

   • Hi James, yes, you can change your PA LLC address yourself. You don’t have to hire a filing company to do so. It’s your LLC and you’re in control of its actions. You can use any address you’d like. PA is flexible. Hope that helps.

3. Hi. I will be changing my LLC address from my residence to a virtual business address. Is the Virtual Business address considered a commercial registered agent?

   • Hi Netara, no, that would not be a Commercial Registered Agent. So for #3 in the Change of Registered Office form, you would enter that address in 3a. Hope that helps.

4. Hi Matt, thanks for your website and information. Very helpful. If I’m moving my LLC from PA to TX, do I need to file a change of address in PA, notifying them that I’m moving to TX? Or is it essentially ending the LLC in PA and forming a new one in TX?

   • Hi Eric, you’re very welcome. No, changing the address of your PA doesn’t “move” (domesticate) your LLC to a new state. The only acceptable address for a Registered Office is one that is in Pennsylvania, so you couldn’t change the address anyway. There are 3 ways to go about it: dissolve and form new, register as a foreign entity, or domesticate (called conversion in Texas) your PA LLC into a Texas LLC (and then dissolve PA LLC). It depends on if you want to keep company history, bank account, EIN Number, etc. Do you want to retain company history, bank account, EIN, etc. or start fresh?

5. Hi Matt,
   I recently formed a LLC with IncFile. I am the sole member of the LLC and I moved to different address(home) however my LLC address is still same so what form do I need to file in order to update home address for the sole member.

   • Hi Imran, the page you’re on shows you how file the Change of Registered Office with the PA Department of State. Please see the instructions above.

6. Clean video, really simple and effective. The task got done swiftly, thank you.

   • Thank you Drew! Glad it was helpful :)

7. How soon after you are approved for your llc can you change your address from home to a virtual. Or is it ok to change it as soon as I get a virtual address?

   • Hi Latoya, the LLC needs to be approved before the state will process a Change of Registered Office form. However, as soon as the LLC is approved, you can file the form. Hope that helps.

     • also when changing the address do i have to send a change address form to the irs as well? or mailing this change of address form to the Bureau of Corporations enough?

       • Hi Latoya, this form only changes your address with the PA Bureau of Corporations. Please see how to change LLC address with IRS. You can change your address with the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue by filing Form REV-864. You can find Form REV-864 on this page: PA Department of Revenue: Business Registration Forms. Hope that helps.
