Initial Articles Of Incorporation {532B}

Form 532B - INITIAL ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION (NONPROFIT, DOMESTIC CORPORATION). This form is used to register a nonprofit organization with the Ohio Secretary of State. The document captures key information required to create the corporation, including the corporation's name, purpose, location of its principal office, and the appointment of a statutory agent who will receive legal documents on behalf of the corporation. The form must be typed and submitted along with a filing fee of $99, and it may be processed under regular or expedited service, depending on the urgency and additional fees paid. Incorporators are required to sign the form, and the appointed statutory agent must accept the appointment in writing. Importantly, this filing does not grant tax-exempt status; organizations must separately apply for that through the IRS and Ohio Department of Taxation. If the nonprofit is intended to be a Community Improvement Corporation, it must comply with specific provisions under Ohio Revised Code Chapter 1724, and the filing must be submitted to the Ohio Attorney General for examination. www.FormsWorkflow.com
