A corporation is a separate legal entity that exists independently from its owners. A corporation is created and comes into existence when articles of incorporation (charter or certificate of incorporation in certain states) are filed with the prescribed fees, and accepted by the proper state authority.

A corporation is owned by stockholders. While stockholders do not directly manage the corporation, they influence corporate decisions through indirect actions such as electing and removing directors, approving or disapproving amendments to the articles of incorporation and voting on important corporate decisions.

The members of the Board of Directors are responsible for managing the affairs of the corporation. Usually, directors make only major business decisions, however they supervise and appoint officers who make the
day-to-day business decisions of the corporation.

Officers are responsible for the everyday management of the corporation. Typically, officers are appointed directly by the Board of Directors.

A stockholder may serve on the Board of Directors and also be an officer of the corporation. In fact, in most states one person is enough to form a corporation, and that person can be the sole officer, director and stockholder.

The primary benefits of tax exempt status include:

• Donors can make charitable contributions and receive a tax deduction. Most often donors will refuse to offer funding if they will not receive a tax deduction.
• The organization will be qualified to receive private and public grant money.
• As an tax exempt organization you can save money on lower postage rates on corporate mailings.
• If you are looking to form a nonprofit, you will need to go through nonprofit registration and nonprofit filing.

Here at Form A Corp, we can not only guide you through the process, we can aid you in completing all necessary forms to quickly get the tax exempt status so you can begin to receive donations. 

Applying for the nonprofit status can be both tedious and complex. If an inexperienced individual attempts to complete the IRS application, and does it incorrectly, it can add months of delays to your approval from the IRS. Most of our clients who chose to take advantage of our 501c3 services, through our educated and experienced staff, benefited with a faster approval by completing the IRS application quickly and correct the first time.
