Effective March 28, 2008: Expedited annual reports filed online will be processed in "real time", meaning that your corporation will be in good standing immediately after completing your payment transaction.

For Profit Corp: $45 filing fee + late penalties or reinstatement fees that may be applicable.
Non-profit corp: $10 filing fee + any reinstatement fees that may be applicable.
$35 expedite fee
All regular filings, expedite and electronic filing fees are NON-REFUNDABLE
