Q: I am starting an internet-based credit repair company, can I service clients in any state?
My business is strictly internet. I skype or video chat with my customers or chat on the website. I am registered in Wyoming but I am now in Illinois with my fiance. He is referring his friends but I make them go through the website to get information or to request information and sign up.
A:
Your description describes that you will be actively operating your company in Illinois and will be generating income as well as presumably conducting activities related to your business. You should register your business with the Illinois Secretary of State. Below is a link to the Illinois Secretary of State that will provide more information.
