A Nebraska Corporation is created when the NE Secretary of State approves the Articles of Incorporation. A record of the Nebraska Corporation is added to the list of Corporations which have officially registered with the Nebraska Secretary of State.  Once a Corporation is registered with the Nebraska Secretary of State, that Corporation immediately has both reporting and tax obligations which incur penalties if the obligations are not met by the required deadlines.   If you've registered a Nebraska Corporation with the Nebraska Secretary of State and want to cease business activities you have to let the NE Secretary of State know that you intend to close your company.  Only after the NE Secretary of State has made sure that all of the obligations of the Nebraska Corporation have been fulfilled will the Secretary of State approve of the closure of the company. When the Nebraska Secretary of State approves the closing of a NE Corporation, that Nebraska Corporation is said to be Dissolved.   The process of Dissolving a Nebraska Corporation is called Nebraska Corporation Dissolution. The state of Nebraska does not require Tax Clearance from the NE Department of Revenue before a Nebraska Corporation is dissolved. However the Nebraska Corporation is required to file a final NE state income tax return with the Nebraska Department of Revenue. Why do I need to Dissolve a Nebraska Corporation? As soon as a Nebraska Corporation is registered with the NE Secretary of State, that Corporation is responsible for recurring obligations of the Nebraska Secretary of State and the Nebraska Department of Revenue.  If the Nebraska Corporation does not file reports or pay taxes then that NE Corporation could be responsible for penalties which go up as time goes by. Unless you Dissolve your Nebraska Corporation with the Nebraska Secretary of State that NE Corporation will be responsible for all recurring fees and penalties.

If the Board of Direcrtors has not been appointed then the Incorporator(s) have to apply for Dissolution of the Nebraska Corporation. We can transcribe and compile minutes or approvals into a form that is legally recognized by the Nebraska Secretary of State. 2. Hold a Shareholder meeting to approve Dissolution of the Nebraska Corporation If a Nebraska Corporation has issued shares of stock then a majority of Corporate Shareholders must approve the Dissolution plan. The approval actions should be documented and kept in the business records. If no shares have been issued then the Nebraska Corporation Dissolution process is easier. If necessary, we can transcribe and compile minutes into a form that is legally recognized by the Nebraska Secretary of State. 3. File all required Biennial Reports with the Nebraska Secretary of State The Nebraska Secretary of State will not approve the Dissolution of a NE Corporation until all required reports have been filed. We can file any required Biennial Report with the NE Secretary of State. 4. Clear up any business debts All creditors of a Nebraska Corporation should be given notice of the pending Corporation Dissolution. Each creditor should be given a mailing address to which they may submit claims as well as a deadline by which claims may be submitted. 5. Pay all taxes and administrative fees owed by the Nebraska Corporation The Nebraska Secretary of State will definitely not approve the Dissolution of a Nebraska Corporation until all outstanding taxes and applicable registration and administrative fees have been paid. less...

All distributions to Corporate Shareholders must be reported to the IRS. 2. Close all business bank accounts of the Nebraska Corporation If there are any business accounts that have been opened for the Nebraska Corporation then those accounts must be closed. If Corporate business accounts are left open there may be liability and obligations of the Dissolved Nebraska Corporation which could lead to legal problems. 3. Cancel all local business licenses and permits of the NE Corporation If the Nebraska Corporation has obtained any state, regional, county or city business licenses or permits, each of those must be cancelled to avoid any reporting or fiscal obligations of the Nebraska Corporation. This includes business registration licenses as well as reseller permits. 4. File IRS Form 966 All Dissolved Nebraska Corporations must file IRS Form 966 with the US Internal Revenue Service. This filing is required within 30 days after the final Dissolution plan is approved. Filing IRS Form 966 lets the Federal Government know that the Nebraska Corporation has been legally Dissolved so that it may take the appropriate actions. We can prepare IRS Form 966 for you to file. 5. Cancel the IRS account associated with the NE Corporation's Federal Tax ID (EIN) A Federal Tax ID, or Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN), is like the Social Security Number for the Nebraska Corporation.  Once the IRS links an EIN to a Nebraska Corporation, that EIN stays with the Nebraska Corporation even after the Company has been Dissolved by the Nebraska Secretary of State. When the IRS processes the final tax return for the Nebraska Corporation, they automatically make the EIN inactive.  However, the account associated with the EIN is not automatically closed.  Closing the account associated with the EIN lessens the likelihood of any problems with the EIN account, or with the IRS, in the future. If you should decide to revivie the Nebraska Corporation down the line the IRS will reactivate the old EIN for your new Business. Before a Nebraska Corporation can close an EIN account, it must be in Good Standing with the IRS.  The Nebraska Corporation must have filed all required tax returns and paid any applicable fees and penalties due to the IRS.  The Nebraska Corporation cannot close its EIN account until the IRS has received payment for any tax amounts the Company may owe. We can prepare the formal documents which you can sign and submit to the IRS in order to close the account associated with your EIN. 6. Publish a Notice of Dissolution of the Nebraska Corporation A Notice of Dissolution of the Nebraska Corporation must be published for three consecutive weeks. Proof of publication must be submitted to the Nebraska Secretary of State after the Notice of Dissolution has been published. We can prepare a Notice of Dissolution and make sure it gets published according to the NE Secretary of State's rules. How long does it take to Dissolve a Nebraska Corporation?
