NFP 114.05 Form

Background:

The pre-printed information is assigned or obtained by the State from the formation or qualification documents submitted to the State of Illinois.  If the Company name or the registered agent information is not correct, you would need to amend the original filing to correct the name or file a Statement of Change of Agent and/or Office to correct the agent information.

This form must show all officers and all directors of the not-for profit corporation.  If the items do not fit on the assigned space, it is best to provide an attachment to the report with the complete list of officers and directors and their addresses (keeping in mind this information is available to the public).

Foreign NFP annual reports are not acceptable as online filings and must be mailed to the State of Illinois.

If your not-for-profit is established for charitable contributions, you may have additional compliance obligations with the Attorney General’s office.  The link to their site is:  https://ag.state.il.us/charities/register_report.html 

NFP 114.05 Instructions:

Numbered items in the article below correspond to the numbered questions on the form.   Unless indicated as optional, all questions must be completed.

Line 1.  Pre-printed name of the Not-for-Profit Corporation.  Verify this is correct.  If the information was presented to the State in this configuration, then the only way to correct is to file an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation.   If this is a typo on the State’s part, then a call to the Secretary of State’s Not-for-Profit department will most likely correct the issue.

Line 2.  Pre-printed name and address of the Registered Agent of the Company:   If the information is correct, do nothing.  If the information is incorrect or has changed completely, you will need to file the Statement of Change of Registered Agent (form NFP 105.10),  the agent change can be mailed along with the annual report, or filed after the report has been accepted. 

Line 3a.  Pre-printed date of incorporation or qualification.

Line 3b.  Pre-printed State of incorporation.

Line 4.  List the names of all officers and directors of the corporation with their respective addresses – business office addresses are acceptable.  The Statutory requirement for the number of directors is no less than 3.  Officers whos names appear on this list are the only officers authorized to sign the annual report.  Directors are not authorized officers and cannot sign the report.
