When to Convert

Conversion Steps

  1. Assess Your Needs: Evaluate your current business structure and future goals to determine if a C-Corp truly aligns with your long-term vision. Consider factors like fundraising, tax implications, and operational complexity. Lovie can help you model different scenarios.
  2. Adopt a Plan of Conversion: Draft a formal plan outlining the conversion process, including asset transfer, share allocation, and any required amendments to your operating agreement. This document needs to be approved by the LLC members.
  3. File Articles of Incorporation: File the Articles of Incorporation with the Colorado Secretary of State. This officially creates your C-Corp. The filing fee is $50 as of 2026.
  4. Obtain an EIN: Apply for a new Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the IRS for your C-Corp. This is required for tax purposes and hiring employees. Lovie can handle this automatically.
  5. Transfer Assets and Liabilities: Transfer all assets and liabilities from your LLC to the newly formed C-Corp. This includes bank accounts, contracts, intellectual property, and any outstanding debts.
  6. Issue Stock: Issue shares of stock to the former LLC members according to the plan of conversion. Document this process carefully to maintain accurate records of ownership.
  7. Dissolve the LLC: File Articles of Dissolution with the Colorado Secretary of State to formally dissolve your LLC. This finalizes the conversion process.
