Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
When do we need to file an amendment?
As your organization grows and its information changes, you may need to amend its information on file with the state. Common reasons for amendment include changes to formation documents, legal name, address, key personnel, or management structure.
Where is the amendment filed?
Generally, you file amendments in the state of formation. Organizations registered in multiple states may need to file articles of amendment in several jurisdictions.
When can we amend my organization?
Amendments can be filed at any time, though the organization must be in good standing with the state at the time of amendment. Please visit our reinstatement page if you need assistance reinstating your organization to good standing.
After receiving our articles of amendment, will we need to update other records?
Generally, yes. Aside from your internal organization records, vendor accounts, etc., you may also need to update other state and federal agencies. Nonprofits may need to report amendments to the IRS.
Are there other steps for doing a name change in many states?
If you're amending your organization's name in many states, there is a risk that the new name you've chosen will only be available in some states. Our name reservation service allows you to hold the name until the amendment paperwork can be approved. We can also manage your doing-business-as (DBA) registration process to enable you to operate under your new name even before filing the amendments.
Can I file an amendment to change my entity type?
Generally, no. You might be looking for entity conversion services. Certain states allow entities to convert from one organization type to another without filing dissolution and formation documents. For example, an LLC may be converted into a corporation, or a nonprofit corporation may be converted into an LLC in some states.

I really appreciate the efficiency and the fact that I don’t have to think about it…I just forward everything to [my Registration Specialist], and she takes care of it.
~ Erin Riley Strong – FRESH EYES DIGITAL
One of the best vendor decisions we’ve ever made. I don’t know why we ever wrestled with all our state compliance filings in house. Labyrinth took all of the pain out of the process, and at a price point that made the decision obvious.
~ Mark Ernest – STETSON UNIVERSITY
Labyrinth made obtaining licenses for our out of state satellite office a breeze! Their customer service is top notch! They always respond to my requests within a day if not sooner. I sleep well at night knowing that Labyrinth is in our corner! They take the guess work out of state licensing! Don’t bother looking for another company! Let Labyrinth navigate the web of confusion for you!
~ Cheri Crider – AMIRAH INC.
We’ve used Labyrinth for over seven years now and I have found their work and customer service to be great. Never had a single problem with all our state charity registrations over the years. We’ve been moving work being done by other companies to Labyrinth (like corporate registrations) to Labyrinth because we trust their work. Highly recommended!
~ David L ~ NAMI
Great experience working with Labyrinth for business and charitable registrations.
~ Elizabeth Ingenthron – A JEWISH VOICE FOR PEACE, INC.
Labyrinth is incredible! They have been managing our state registrations for about five years, and it has made our work so much easier. They save us time and effort, and they always come through for us. Highly recommended!
~ Ron Carter – CHILDREN, INC.
Amazingly proactive and throughly professional, and competent. Nice people, too!
~ Tracy Brown – NATIONAL ROWING FOUNDATION, INC.
The expertise, timeliness, and responsiveness of the Labyrinth team is excellent. They have been a lifesaver to our organization.
~ Lois Riddick – ASIA FRONTIER OUTREACH – USA, INC.
State registrations for charity compliance? No, thank you! I DO NOT want to understand it. THANK YOU Labyrinth, you are worth every penny & all whom I’ve worked with have been great.
~ Diana Mansour – VISIONSYNERGY
We trust the professionals at Labyrinth with all our registration and reporting needs!
~ Christine Dorchak – GREY2K USA WORLDWIDE, INC.
I have been very happy with Labyrinth. They are always on top of everything and have helped me tremendously with all my state registration filings.
~ Mickey Aboff – JBI INTERNATIONAL
We are a growing nonprofit organization with donors in all 50 States. Labyrinth has allowed us to comply with the myriad rules and regulations in every State. We do not have the time, nor the expertise, to handle this on our own. Labyrinth has made it so easy for us to get into compliance!
~ Daniel Leischner – AFRICA NEW LIFE MINISTRIES INTERNATIONAL
The staff at Labyrinth are very good at their jobs. They stay on top of the filings and provide a complete turn key service. I recommend using Labyrinth.
~ Charles Feeney – UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT FOUNDATION, INC.
My organization operates in nearly every state. Yet, like many non-profits, we are thinly staffed for admin and other back-office operations. We do not have the capacity to stay on top of every state’s charitable registration laws and/or filing requirements. Labyrinth does that for us and does it at a very reasonable rate. I would highly recommend Labyrinth for any non-profit that has multiple state charitable registration filings.
~ Jan Bigelow – B’NAI B’RITH YOUTH ORGANIZATION, INC.
Labyrinth made the entire process of filing for state authorizations to solicit an easy and very smoothly delivered process. After we supplied the necessary information to them, very little time was required on our end other than filing the forms in our shared drive! Definitely recommend this company!
~ Deb Cullinan – NAPO, INC.
Very helpful in navigating charitable registrations for non-profits. They are also very knowledgeable about other aspects of non-profits and are always ready to help. A wonderful organization.
~ Marilyn Gurtman-Oppenheimer – ZAMIR CHORAL FOUNDATION
Labyrinth has been a godsend for us! Highly recommend them–they do a great job of keeping us compliant with required states across the US and have GREAT staff/customer service.
~ Brooke Brown – NA KEIKI O EMALIA
I’ve had great experiences with Labyrinth across two organizations, I definitely recommend their services!
~ Killjan Anderson – USA BASKETBALL
