Can I file it myself instead of hiring a service?

Yes, you can. Filing on your own costs the state's fees only, $50 over three years.

Paying for help raises the three-year total by $397 to $597, which buys the paperwork and the agent role.

What put number one on top?

Mainstay Filing does best on chores the price takes care of, which carries 29% of our score.

Two questions carry most of the weight, what you pay over three years (33%) and chores the price takes care of (29%), and three smaller ones follow.

Registered Agent MS.org is the smaller bill, but you would still prepare the annual report yourself.
