What the $99 yearly charge covers

Forming an Illinois LLC through IL Registered Agent.org
IL Registered Agent.org files the formation document for $199; the state's filing fee is billed separately. Year one as your registered agent is included, and the agent is $99 a year after that. The EIN application is $99 extra, though the IRS issues the number at no cost.
Illinois requires the Limited Liability Company Annual Report every year, due before the first day of the entity's anniversary month with a $75 state fee. IL Registered Agent.org does not prepare it, so the owner must.

IL Registered Agent.org against Mainstay Filing and the other providers
On the agent service alone, IL Registered Agent.org totals $297 across three years against $447 for Mainstay Filing, a margin of $150. Mainstay Filing offers one agent plan that applies in every state and scans the first three government mailings a year free. Mainstay Filing's package is $199 a year and includes the annual report; the IL Registered Agent.org route totals $397 over three years with the agent but leaves report filing to you. Illinois Registered Agent.co, the other Illinois agent heard on this site, charges the same $99 a year, and the two finish near each other.
