Document Processing Dates (Updated 10/03/25)
The processing date is the date your filing was received by the Division of Corporations. If you filed online, the receipt date is the date your credit card payment was processed. If you filed and paid by check, the receipt date is the date of deposit of your check. (Look at the back of your cleared check for our endorsement and a validation: Processing date, five-digit number, and a three-digit number. Example: 01/01/24 –01001 –001. 01/01/24 would be the receipt date.)
