OK so those of you who have Delaware LLC's should note that your annual LLC Franchise tax is due by June 1st, not too many business days till then.
If you are following this thread
https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1141039 then you know that if you don't pay then your company will not exist anymore, lol.
Personally I just paid 4 of those today, every year I have been doing it through the company that files the forms for me, but I noticed they were charging me $50 a pop for that service and with a handful of LLC's it adds up.
I looked around for an alternative and found a competitor offering to do the filing for $99 so obviously $50 is not the worst price out there.
However - I did happen to notice that you can do it directly to the state of Delaware here:
http://corp.delaware.gov/paytaxes.shtml and if you don't know your ID # you can look it up here:

Unfortunately I didn't discover that till the last one, so by doing the research early I could have saved $150 but, next year I'll save $200 so it's better than nothing.
The filing companies send you a nice email with a link to pay through them so they can get that service fee, and they don't go out of their way to tell you you can pay online, in fact they almost hide it by making a notice on bold font that if you don't want to pay the service fee you can always mail a check. Personally I don't like to muck around with envelopes and stamps much besides I usually fuck up a couple of checks before I get one right, so I usually opt to pay the fee, but it's good to know its not necessary, maybe some of you can avoid that fee because of my mistake, good luck!
