Late fee

The state adds a late penalty on top of the fee. The exact amount is on the official site linked above.

Out of good standing

Banks, lenders and buyers check it. A good-standing certificate is refused until the report is filed.

Administrative dissolution

Left long enough, the state dissolves the LLC. Reinstatement costs $199 + state fees, more than the report.
