A filled-in Form SI-550 example: a corporation lists its officers

Form SI-550 example filled out, example: a corporation lists its officers
Dana Sample files Form SI-550 for Sample Widgets Inc., a California corporation. Its mailing address is a P.O. Box, which fills item 3b. The picture shows Page 1 of 2; every value in it is made up. Sample Widgets Inc. has no principal California office, so item 3c stays empty. Dana Sample, Alex Sample and Pat Sample are the Chief Executive Officer, Secretary and Chief Financial Officer, and all three work at the address in item 3a. No officer has a suffix, so Suffix stays empty in item 4. Business Entities Submission Cover Sheet is left blank because the picture shows only the Statement of Information page. 5. Director(s), 6. Service of Process, 7. Type of Business and 9. Email Notifications are left blank because they are on Page 2 of 2, which the picture does not show. No officer or director has such a judgment, so No is ticked in 8. Labor Judgment.
